Prairie Rag Doll and Clothing ADVANCE 2375 Sewing Pattern

Advance 2375 Prairie Rag Doll and Clothing Sewing Pattern creates a charming handmade rag doll inspired by classic prairie-day styles. The doll’s body is made from unbleached muslin and features braided yarn hair styled into two pigtails tied with bows. A transfer is included for embroidering the doll’s face, making the details sweet and expressive. Her outfit includes a bonnet that ties under the chin with a ribbon bow, an apron that ties in a neat bow at the back, and a dress with puff short sleeves. The pantaloons have ruffled edges for an authentic homespun look, and the pattern also includes moccasin-style shoes made from oil cloth, leatherette, or old kid gloves.

The dress and bonnet can be sewn from dimity, percale, or lawn, while the petticoat, pantaloon, and apron are suited to lawn or muslin. The doll is stuffed with cotton or kapok, and trims such as ribbon, braid, rickrack, or lace edging may be added for extra charm. This pattern includes sixteen pieces and full instructions for assembling the rag doll and her complete prairie outfit.
