This is my month to play with dolls and historical costume! I am working with a variety of doll kits by various designers...two different issues of Little Women, and additions to my Early (US) Presidents by Yield House. They are not as grand as Tonner but will give ample opportunity to "strut my stuff". A am trying to use all the correct pattern pieces I use on Historical Costumes and not the simplification of construction in the pattern. In the 12" size, I have been able to use Hunniset and Arnold just as they are drawn! I also have a wonderful lady body that is very shapely and that makes the task so much more pleasant than the usual angular body given with the china!!
