Raggedy Anne Baby Costume

This was actually a pretty simple baby costume to make. I already had a white hat that I glued red yarn in loops on the inside of the hat. I made it shorter in the front and longer in the back.

The dress is just a basic blue dress. I took a rectangle of white cotton fabric and sewed it around the dress to look like the bottom of the apron. Then I took more of the cotton fabric and sewed the strips over the shoulders for the straps of the apron.

I couldn't find red and white striped tights for an infant, so I took plain white tights and painted red stripes using fabric paint. I already had the white shoes to complete the outfit.

That's all there was too it. Pretty simple, but it came out wonderful!
