Looking for a pattern

Several years ago my husband made a rocking chair/cradle combo for our daughter. Now he wants to make one for our first grand-daughter. I believe it was in a Hands On magazine "Woodworking Projects" but I'm missing several pages - no idea of a publication date. The cover has Raggedy Ann in a doll cradle, there is a train and a bubble gum machine.

The rocking chair back was solid wood with a heart shaped back & heart shaped cut out. The cradle head piece matched.

If anyone has a clue - we'd appreciate it.

I have the book that you describe but there is no project that fits the description that you give. I have another book in that series and I will check later if it is that one.

Here is a link to the Hands-On archives and I don't see the project you are describing.
