And, Then There's Gypsy Annie!


While "Primitive Andy" is the shyest "dollie" on the planet, and "Primitive Annie" is the sweetest "dollie" on the planet, "Gypsy Annie" takes the prize at being the most adventuresome "dollie" on the planet. She may be a "dollie", but she is a "gypsy" after all. She travels from town to town and lives an unconventional life.

Given how much she travels she was unaware of all the brouhaha surrounding the lack of stories for "Primitive Andy", "Primitive Annie" and herself over on "The Dollie Storage Room" blog and Linda's Blog.

"Gypsy Annie" is a "dollie" who just goes with the flow. She was happy to hear that her pattern was revised, but not concerned with her story not being told for 7 years. If Linda wanted to tell in now that would be fine as long as she doesn't jinx it by telling it in the 7th year.

Here's her story:

Like many of her relatives "Gypsy Annie" is a fortune teller.  It's not an occupation she would have picked for herself.  She'd rather be a travel agent, but she had a natural ability for it and so that is what she does for a living.

"Gypsy Annie" really prefers to travel and would love to travel around the world some day.  The problem is that she doesn't make a lot of money as a fortune teller.  But she's saving her pennies and hoping to do a bit of traveling this summer.

Gypsy Annie has a coffee stained cloth body, embroidered face with black button eyes, and oodles of freckles.  She has red lace-tied boots and long raggedy red looped hair along the sides and top of her head.

 She is wearing a coffee stained,  tattered, and fringed shirt that is gathered at the neck and has fringed sleeves that are gathered at the wrists.  Her skirt is gathered at the waist and fringed along the edges.   She has a tattered sash and fringe tied around her waist and she is wearing a pair of fringed bloomers that are gathered at the waist. She has a fringed gypsy kerchief tied around her head.

"Gypsy Annie" is a wanderer by nature.  She dreams of one day circling the globe.  She knows there is something like that in her future.  She just doesn't know when it will happen.  She's got her fingers crossed for "soon!"
