Life is not measured
by the number of
breaths we take,
but by the moments
that take our
breath away!
In
Memory of
Our Mom
1933 - 1998
She taught us to laugh and enjoy
life with each other, the good and the bad. To never be afraid to
dream and try something new, cause
"Can't never did nothin!"
Wish you were
here to play dolls with us, mom!

Hello Ladies
I read about your web site in the
Embroidery Journal. Decided that I would try the "freebie" for
one of my 7 yr old (soon to be 8 yr old) twin Grand Daughters.
And now of course I have to do another one!! LOL! But they
are the only way to sew doll clothes. What a great idea.
Thank you ever so much. I hope you come up with some more ideas
to expand the "doll wardrobe" - such as nightgowns - hat and
coat - shoes etc. The requests from my 7 yr old (soon to be 8)
"Customers" keep coming in! You can see by the state of the
doll's hair that she has and still is a well used doll!!
Thanks again for your design - it
really was a lot of fun to sew it and so easy to put together.
Making doll clothes was never so easy!

June 2004
 I was checking out my latest issue of Embroidery Journal and saw the
layout for the doll clothes. I have a doll, Susie, that is over 50
years old. She is one of the only things I have from my childhood.
Susie has not been dressed for many years. Several years ago, I had
her cleaned up, new wig, shoes, socks, etc., and there she stayed,
undressed. I had in mind to someday make a dress for her. Well, when I
looked at your featured doll, I thought how much she looked like Susie,
so I decided to give your darling free downloaded pattern a try. It
worked perfectly and she is now very fashionable in her new dress. I’ve
attached a photo of her. I want to thank you ladies so much for sharing
the pattern. Now I can display my Susie!
Thanks again.

Wedding Dress Memory
- Sandie Dec 03
My cousin was married in 1949. Last year, she
gave me her wedding dress telling me that it was a big deal
because the fabric was imported from Paris and that a family
friend had special ordered the fabric and made her the dress.
I used your program (Dresses and Gowns
Embroidery CD) and made a bodice top and skirt
without embroidery details since the fabric is lacy and wouldn’t
lend itself to
embroidery. I also made the floppy
hat and used a piece of the original veil on it too. It’s
pretty cute and I hope my cousin is overwhelmed with it.
Obviously, she’s in her 70’s now. Oh, I also made a very
small parchment which is in Barbie's hands.
*** There is an enlargement of the parchment attached to
picture. Click on the picture to enlarge and see details.
Update:
I asked Sandie to
let me know the response when she gave her cousin the gift.
12-15-03 we received the following:
Hi Edna;
I gave the doll to my cousin today and her
hands started to shake and then she was crying. She said it just
blew her away! I took a copy of your website over for her to see
too since she's computer illiterate, so she immediately called her
daughter to look at the website! And, when her daughter saw it,
she exclaimed "Oh My God!". So, I guess you can say it was a big
hit.
Betty is going to look for a glass dome with
doll stand to try to preserve the dress. I was a little worried
about the arm sleeves, but she didn't care, she loved them. She
didn't even mind that I had dolled up the dress and hat from the
original. I am sure the phone is still busy as she tells all her
friends about this.
I think I will order the pants cd from you
too after Christmas, my granddaughter would love those.
Merry Christmas!
Sandie
