This doll has several variations.  Her US release could be made in either Malaysia, China, or Mexico.  The version made in Mexico is prone to losing color from the head, turning the face greasy and pale.  There was also a European release of this doll in a pink dress.  Additionally, this doll (wearing a special sash) was used as the 1991 Grants A Wish fundraising doll.
