I found patterns for a basic doll and some clothes to print out here. The dolls body, the little green dress, the white shirt and the white shorts are all from her patterns. Everything else I made up as I went along. I'm especially proud of the little undies.
If I were to make it again I think I'd make the head a bit bigger, she's a bit of a pin head. Also I don't love the felt mouth I gave her. She looks a bit like a gingerbread man.
I have also made this dress to go into the box. Using the Little Dresses for Africa pattern.
I just love the fabric. It's one that my Mum found in her sewing boxes and gave to me a while ago. She spent $2.87 on it at Coles.. probably about 25 years ago :P
Luckily I still have over a metre left. Expect to see one of my children wearing something made from this fabric at some point :P
