Atlanta, GA — StepStitches announces the launch of a book and a family of new dolls and accessories just in time for the holidays!

About StepStitches
Atlanta-based StepStitches is a handmade custom doll company with original clothing and a book that helps young girls explore the world around them. The durable dolls are in three skin tones and different hair colors to include various ethnicities. Dean says StepStitches’ dolls help customers appreciate and celebrate their own natural attributes.
The licensed social worker and former elementary school teacher developed her business nearly five years ago to reach women who were underrepresented in the doll market during her youth in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. “As a child, I had a Raggedy Ann that I loved dearly, but she did not look like me. Cinnamon Annie is the doll I would have loved to have had,” Dean said. Customers have eagerly purchased her dolls for their daughters, granddaughters, nieces, and young friends.
