No pattern pieces

Useless book no patterns

Fabulous doll patterns plus extras

I purchased 3 books on making 18" doll clothes and this was by far the best. Tissue paper patterns are included for everything! The clothes are darling and do-able, the instructions easy to follow. There are also patterns and ideas for making story boards and the accessories for each fairy tale scene. Well done book.

Judy's dolls

I have bought knock off dolls that look like the American Girl doll and I make them into the storybook characters for granddaughters. Great patterns and good instructions

A fun way to create hours of play!

This is a wonderful book! What a great way to create many hours of make-believe and play. I do have to alter the patterns a bit, since my dolls are a little bigger, but it is not a difficult process. I can use scraps from my stash and fabric remnants for most of the patterns. I love that it even includes instructions on how to make the backdrop settings and props. I would highly recommend this book!

Play time for dolls!

Has your 18-inch doll been fantasizing herself as the beautiful Princess Cinderella? Has she been hinting around to dress up as Little Red Riding Hood for her next masquerade party? Or maybe, she's more practical and just wants a warm and snuggly Cowardly Lion or White Rabbit suit for those cold winter mornings. Say no more! All these patterns, plus fifteen others, can be found in this book. From Hansel and Gretel to that naughty little Goldilocks, your doll can be it all. And once she's smartly outfitted, you can find the directions to make all the necessary furniture and must-have settings from simple supplies, like cardboard project display board, felt, white foam board, and other things available at your local craft store. What a great book for the doll who has everything!
