Which dolls will fit these doll clothes?

On a wooden floor with a purple wall behind her, we see a lovely blue-haired vintage Strawberry Shortcake / Blueberry Muffin 5 inch doll with her hair in side pigtails. She's in remarkably good condition, considering that these dolls were made in the 1970's and 1980's. She wears a handmade white cotton gown or nightgown (long dress) with lace at the bottom of her sleeves (around her fisted hand) and lace covering the entire skirt. She looks at the camera brightly with open eyes. In the corner of the image is the Chelly Wood dot com logo.
