Does my 4 and 3/4-inch Greenbrier doll match a 4-inch or 5-inch doll of yours? #TapeMeasureTuesday #dolls

The image shows the Chelly Wood character doll in her sewing room. She's kneeling down, looking at a tape measure. Beside her are two different Greenbrier dolls. One looks like a Strawberry Shortcake knockoff and the other looks like a Kelly doll knockoff. The two dolls appear to be waiting their turns for sewing measurements.

UPDATE TO THIS POST: Please note that the 4.75 inch (blond and pink-haired) Greenbrier doll that appears in this post has recently been discovered to contain harmful chemicals! Visit this website to learn more or go to the CPSC.gov website for more detailed information on toy recalls.

This week we’re making a teeny-tiny easy-to-sew felt-and-cotton dress for 4-inch or 5-inch dolls.

My Greenbrier doll which I’ve been designing patterns for (shown in the center, in the photo above) is 4.75 inches tall, as you’ll see in the measurements below…

Can you guess which other 4-inch or 5-inch dolls can fit into this week’s dress project?

Leave your guesses in the comments below today’s doll measurements please, and I’ll let you know whether you’re right or wrong (with the caveat that I have to actually own the doll you’re guessing so I can try the dress on her).
