I fell in love with the pattern to make these dolls. It is Simplicity 2462. I made these three for my triplet great nieces on their 3rd birthday. When my 8 yr old granddaughter Madison saw the dolls, she wanted one so I made her one for Christmas and most recently made one for the 5 yr old daughter of a friend who is like a granddaughter to me. All the dolls take on a charater of their own as I made them. On each doll I put a heart on the tummy with the child's name on it except for Madison who wanted a peace sign on hers. I myself love dolls and am considering making some for myself for my sewing room. The pattern is really easy to make. I wish now I would have thought to make a label to put on the back of each doll saying who it was made by. I didn't think of it at the time. All the little girls I made them for just loved them. On a new note, I added some more pictures to our album of quilts. Sister Susan(country quilter) and I made a quilt wall hanging for our sister Barb's 70th birthday. Make sure you go take a peak at the quilt and the label.
Keep on quilting and crafting ladies...
til next time.... Debbie
