Here is a link to lots of rag type dolls. http://www.lilliemaescrafts.com/

I am looking for a site or pattern for the Time Out dolls. I quilt and crochet for Disabled Veterans at the local nursing home, elderly in nursing homes, elderly at my church, crafts for church, cancer patients and now premature babies. I showed one of the disabled veterans a time out doll that I purchased in Houston for my husband to use at the car show and he wanted one made with a Navy uniform on him. I said I would see what I could do. If anyone has a pattern or a site, please send it to me. Also I am always in need of cut pieces of fabric to continue making quilts for those who need them the most. God Bless, Marilyn

I made several sets of the 12" Raggedy Anne and Andys. Since they have small faces I used the embroidery feature on my Husqvarna and sewed one small heart for the mouth and then did 2 small black triangles for the eyes, and also one pink triangle for the nose. I used iron-on interfacing on the backs of the faces to give the face some body for the stitching. It's one great way to make them all the same if you are doing sets. You can also do them production style and do all the mouths, then eyes, then noses. It saves time when you don't have to keep changing thread colors. I will have to tell you that the clothes are so small you will spend more time on them than the dolls themselves. They were really cute though and I had no problems selling them.

You'll have the best luck finding patterns like this on sites that sell sewing patterns for modest clothing or vintage patterns.
