Awesome, love it, making it for a doll that is bigger than barbie but skinnier, and with a slightly bigger but. I love this doll, but she is making me crazy with the pattern adjustments. I think I can make this one for her without too much insanity.
Love this pattern - I will get it to fit my doll - even if i have to remake it twenty times - the pattern is awesome - the doll just has some seriously weird measurements!
Another purchase for my weird measurment doll. I will get this to fit her - one way ot another! Love the instructions for the smocking - great way to get that detail.
