"Wonderful outfit.  Did you machine or hand sew it?  How are the pants when "she" sits down.  I love the fit of my pattern standing but hate the slide down when sitting."

Fashions for Dolls

I have all of the Big three's patterns.  I remember why I went to Burda to find more more creative patterns for myself.  What are you using for patterns/inspiration? I use Japanese Jenny patterns (My Favorite Doll Book) and scale them up.  You can't beat the creativity.See More
