Annie Doll and Onesie Gift

My newest grand niece was born in October, and will be baptized this month.  She is a beautiful dark haired beauty with big, beautiful eyes and a cute little button nose!
I already made her a rocking chair for the baby shower to match her room theme of little grey elephants, so I looked for some inspiration to make her something special for her christening, which, unfortunately, I will be unable to attend.
I dug through my storage bins filled with fabric and patterns accumulated over the years from fabric stores, flea markets, and rummage sales.  I love making dolls and get the strong urge every now and then to make one.  Now was one of those times. I know that this choice of gift isn't religious in nature, but it's a cute little set nonetheless, and something that comes from my heart, so I went ahead with the project.   I didn't have a photo, just a pattern, and although I thought I hadn't used the pattern before, I actually had, which I discovered, the further into the project I got. 
I love this little Annie with her striped legs and fuzzy yarn hair.  I also made a matching Annie faced onesie and matching bag for little Libby, my sweet little grand niece.  Happy Christening Day, little one!
