Below is the baby doll. I believe she's actually called a Baby Dear Babydoll or maybe a Dear Baby. I have taken her apart and now you can see what was inside her. She's now ready for some good cleaning after this and I will be making a pattern for her new body from her old body

My next project....
A friend has asked me to see if I can repair a baby doll that she had as a young child. She would like to give this doll to her granddaughter now. The baby is in tough shape as you can see from this photo. I hope to give this baby new life so her granddaughter can get many years of enjoyment as well. Wish me luck! This has some sewing involved. I will need to make this baby a new body which is fabric and has a filler. The arms, legs, and head a plastic so they need a good cleaning. The hair...I'm reading up on and have a few ideas to try. Lets begin!
The tote has been finished!
It took be a while to decide on the strap. I found this webbing material that you buy by the yard and it comes in different colors. It seems very sturdy and I like it very much. I've been using my tote for about a week now and its holding up great and holding lots of stuff!
