    I am trying to remember a puppet movie from the 80s or 90s
    I remember it had a girl with a Doll that talked to her and at one point the girls mom put the doll in the washing machine and it opened to a trippy world of patch work where a character called the book worm was. They asked it a question and I think it started their adventure where the girl had to confront a witch.

    Sorry that is all I remember but I would really like to find out what the movie was.
    Thanks in advance!

    Is it this one?

    The Hugga Bunch (1985) (TV)

    Let me know, there are a few others, but this one seems to be most likely.

    About it...

    "Live action with puppets, not animated... When the girl tells the doll about the problems with her grandmother, and that she wants to keep her grandmother from getting old so they won't send Grams away, Huggins suggests they ask the bookworm in Huggaland, since the bookworm knows everything. So together they travel/step through the mirror into another world / other land / strange land... tree with magic berries that keep the queen young and restore youth..."- The most frequent plot-to-title film requests

    Wait a tick, I think I cought like the tail end of this show. Odd indeed. Interesting though. I hope it's what you are looking for...
