Who is this beautiful girl?
Well, she is an Effanbee Patsy Ann
for starters and she belongs to
Jane Gurley Hansel.
Let me tell you how her photo came to me.
Awhile back, I found my Patsy Joan, Charlotte.
She was wearing this original dress
which I refreshed and restored.
One of my online Composition Doll Club friends
Karen Keen
asked if I could possibly make a pattern
from this dress to share as it seemed to
be an original vintage design.
Lo and behold Karen had made this dress
for my Charlotte as a thank you!
Thank you Karen.
So, on Valentine's Day I posted
this photo of Charlotte wearing her dress
on one of my online doll clubs.
Imagine my joy when
Jane Gurley Hansel
posted images of her darling Patsy Ann
wearing a dress she made from this pattern
that she also found here on my blog!!
Here are some more photos
of Jane's Patsy Ann
ENJOY!
So mischievous!
So precious.
Love that bonnet!!
This fabric is adorable.
Aww, sweet girl.
Thank you so much for sharing Patsy Ann
with us Jane. It really made my day.
It is indeed true that sharing
is the greatest gift!!
Happy Valentine's Day!

Hi Brenda and Jane,
Patsy Ann looks so cute in her dress. I have a reproduction Ann and Joan that need new clothes. I think I will try the pattern on them. I agree with Jane, your sight is always inspiring Brenda. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Anna,
Thank you! I am so grateful Jane let me share her lovely pictures on here. Her Patsy Ann is so adorable and that dress fabric is to die for! I am so glad you enjoy my blog. The reason I started this blog was to show how easy it is to clean and restore dolls. Sharing this pattern has brought me so much enjoyment, seeing how people create new dresses with it. It is really a pretty simple dress. I hope you share whatever you create with us. I am going to add the blog email at the bottom of this post.
Hugs
Brenda
