Our Wonderful Graduation Day E-Patterns Have All Been Revised - Just In Time For Graduation Day!

With the Spring comes graduations.  A wonderful time of adventure and new beginnings.  So, I decided to REVISE my "James" and "Anna" graduation doll print patterns and e-patterns just in time for graduation day.

If you're a reader of my Linda's Blog you know that there is a story behind the making of some of my dolls. Well, there is definitely a story behind the making of my two graduation dolls - "James" and "Anna."  I wrote about their story on myLinda's Blog a couple of year's ago in a blog post entitled "The Story Behind My "James" and "Anna" Graduation Doll Patterns."  If you'd like to read their story please  CLICK HERE.  

Our graduation dolls make great centerpiece decorations for any graduation party. 



“James” is a pattern to make a  20” Boy  Graduation Doll .  He is from our Graduation Series.  His Pattern Category - Skill Level is Beginner and his pattern has been revised.


James has been preparing for his Graduation Day for quite some time. He decided that he wanted to take the summer off after his graduation and travel around the country. He wants to have some fun before he has to settle down into a real job in the real world.

He's not sure his parents will approve the summer off. He certainly is going to give them all the reasons why this is a good thing, maybe, even throw in an "impish" smile of two. That will sway them to his way of thinking. He can be a charmer when he wants to.



James has been impishly awaiting his Graduation Day and is a free-standing cloth doll with a square bottom denim base. He sports a long cotton shirt with rolled sleeves and square-bottomed denim pants. His face is embroidered and he has round black button eyes.


He is wearing a black satin graduation gown with 3/4 sleeves and is holding his diploma in his right hand and his commencement exercise booklet in his left hand. He has wild curly brown hair framing his face and has a black graduation cap on his head.

“Anna” is a pattern to make a  20” Girl  Graduation Doll .  She is from our Graduation Series.  Her  Pattern Category - Skill Level is Beginner and her pattern has been revised.


Anna is so happy to be finally graduating. It seems like it's been a long time coming and she's looking forward to her summer vacation.

Of course, it won't be a vacation for her as she has to prepare for moving into college all the way across the country from where she lives. She wanted the best school in her field and it was far away.

While Anna and her parents weren't really happy that she'd be this far from home they want her to have the best education possible - so they agreed. So, Anna has a lot to do before she goes on to college.


Anna has been waiting a long time for her Graduation Day and is a free-standing cloth doll with a square bottom denim base. She has a long tunic shirt with fringed 3/4 gathered sleeves and square-bottomed denim pants. Her face is embroidered and she has round black button eyes.


She is wearing a white satin graduation gown with 3/4 sleeves and is holding a bouquet of silk ribbon flowers with streamers and diploma in her right hand and her commencement exercise booklet in her left hand. She has long flowing red hair framing her face and has a white graduation cap on her head. A string of pearls and ribbon bow decorate her outfit.

I also decided to revise my graduation gown for a 20" doll pattern. There is also a story behind the creation of this pattern which I wrote about in a Linda's Blog post entitled "Customer Request - Graduation Cap and Gown E-Pattern for 20" Doll."   Please CLICK HERE  if you would like to read that story.



“Graduation Day ”is a pattern to make a Graduation Cap & Gown for 20" Doll E-Pattern .  The Pattern Category - Skill Level is Beginner and the pattern has also been revised.


My new graduation cap and gown for 20" doll e-pattern is for making a gown with a two-snap front closure with fold down lapels, gathered front, and mid length full sleeves. The lined cap has a cardboard top, tassel, and elastic strap for affixing the cap to the doll's head.
