Cookie and her Christmas Bears by Judith Yates, 1988

 

UPDATE: Thank you Teri Pettit for giving me this much better copy!

This is the other side of Margie, the Pat Stall paper doll I posted yesterday. 

So much of the print and color from the Stall doll appeared on this page, but it was tricky to remedy without washing out the pastel colors of the Cookie page completely.

Margie and her Christmas Frocks and Dolls by Pat Stall, ca. 1988

 

Pat Stall took her inspiration from Aldens Christmas Book, 1963 edition. 

She listed the Aldens page numbers for the dresses and the dolls.

Thanks to Galen Tigert, I now know that this paper doll (and Cookie and her Bears) appeared in the Doll Reader, December 1988/January 1989 issue.

Audrey Ann by Mary Engelbreit 2001

From the newsletter, "Leading the Artful Life," Fall 2001. This was a spin-off of the Mary Engelbreit Home Companion magazine. The Home Companion and the Artful Life celebrated crafts, recipes, artists and its readers. I loved peaking into the artist studios featured in the magazine. And the 16-page newsletter welcomed essays by its readers. Although the magazine and newsletter ceased publishing more than 10 years ago, Mary Engelbreit continues to produce many products in her lovely, whimsical style. You can see more of what she's up to at her website.

Chris Christie paper doll

Thanks to David Wolfe for the heads up about this Chris Christie paper doll on the back page of the GQ magazine currently on the stands (the July issue). Nothing here looks like it fits well, but of course many cartoonists use the paper doll motif to score some political hits, not to make a fashion statement!
