Sew super cute rag dolls and their gorgeous clothes to make the perfect present for little girls. Choose from 11 adorable dolls and a wide range of accessories such as hats, bags and shoes. Each doll has her own name and personality and will charm children and adults alike.
The dolls come with a variety of hair colours and styles and their own individual outfits. Choose from Fleur who has pigtails and her own doll sized knitting bag; Jean who likes the outdoors with her red boots and dungarees; and Red who has gorgeous red hair and a fabulous red cloak to match.
There is a summer time doll with cute espadrilles and straw bonnet, a ballerina doll with a tutu and tiara, a wedding doll with a beautiful dress and veil and a bedtime dolly with her own nightdress and matching teddy. And don”t forget the delightful school girl doll with her own very special school satchel.
The basic doll pattern can be used to sew all the dolls and then altered according to hair and eye colour and hair style. There are step by step instructions for all the clothes and accessories for each doll, as well as suggestions for which fabrics to use and how to combine different prints and trims.
