Cinnamon Annie with Step Stitches

In this episode of Stitch Please, Stephanie Dean tells us a little bit of her story and how she got to make black dolls with colorful and beautiful dresses and then fund her own entrepreneurship through Cinnamon Annie Dolls. She talks about how difficult it was to get a doll that looked similar to her during her childhood, how her mother influenced Stephanie’s self-image, and how she started to get involved in making black dolls that little girls could identify with. Stephanie always seeks for Cinnamon Annie Dolls to combine the nostalgia of classic dolls with the modern styling that a contemporary little girl would like.
