Hi Erin
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This is a very sweet doll; it's unfortunate that the market for unattributed cloth dolls is so soft at present that I strongly suspect this has more "sentimental" value than "market" value at present.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
