Sewing swap pics

I joined a sewing swap, where we had to make silly dolls for one another.  The pattern was a simple dog bone shape, with braided arms and legs, and big eyes.
I added eyelids, hair, slippers, and a coat or housecoat.  I named her "Sleepy Sally" because the eyelids make her look sleepy.
She seemed lonely, so I crocheted her a kitty cat.  I named the cat "Bitty Buddy", after my swap partner's cat, Buddy.  I hope she'll like the doll and cat.
The hairstyle is cool because it can be worn up or down or in ponytails.Here she is, with her hair up in a ponytail.
(I didn't like the braided legs...they seemed too small, so I stuffed some baby slippers and attached them with bracelet elastic.  That way, my swap partner can remove them if she doesn't care for them.  I think they're cute.)
