Candice Lacy

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a Pixie Faire class that shows me how to make shoes. I just can’t seem to make them look professional, and to me, they’re an essential design component. I think all the courses sound interesting- I’d love any of them.

I would love to take a pixie faire class that shows me how to choose and buy fabrics and trim. I still sometimes struggle with finding the right fabric I need and figuring out what will work for doll clothes-especially if I am ordering on-line. It’s so frustrating when I have an idea I am really excited about but then can’t find what I want to make the project!

An Overview class would also be great, one that covers a wide variety of topics, so I could make a list of topics to delve into further.

I would love to take a Pixie Faire class that teaches me how to improve the skills I have and learn new ones. My mother taught me how to sew a long time ago.

Debbie

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a Pixie Faire class that shows me how to sew with stretch knits (like for t-shirts and leggings) using my serger. It may be in understanding the serger ability itself, but a class may help me understand what I need to change on my serger to make them better. A class in design and design choices would also be neat! Thank you.

Karen

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a Pixie Faire class that shows me how to add that “wow factor” to my doll creations…something that makes my clothing really special & sets it apart from other doll clothing that people can buy.
My favorite Pixie Faire course is one that teaches me how to brand my doll fashions & produce them in a time efficient manner without sacrificing quality because I aspire to sell my sewn items at arts & crafts fairs.

Karen

I would like a Pixie Faire course on sewing short cuts.

Jen

January 03, 2019

My favorite Pixie Faire class is this past December’s Upcycling class. I am big on re-using anything I can, but I never thought of turning socks into sweaters. I would love to see how else I can minimize waste.

Jan

January 03, 2019

I would love to take a Pixie Faire course that teaches me how to adjust existing patterns I already have for other size dolls such as Journey Girl. I already do this using Liberty Jane patterns for Journey Girl t shirt and jeans and they work out OK but some of the more elaborate jackets and dresses with several bodice pieces don’t work as well. Maybe there are some quick fixes we could all learn?

Ruth

January 03, 2019

Linda

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a PIxie Faire Class that shows me how to design clothing for my dolls and the little ones that love them. There are very little patterns for matching outfits for the little girl and her beloved doll. I am presently sewing a dress for a little girl and her doll from her Great Grandma’s wedding gown. What a privilege to share in this family memory that is being passed down in this way. I know the little girl will love her new dress and that she and her doll are dressed in the same fabric as well in the same style. And, more importantly, I hope Great Grandma will be pleased to see her special dress make her Great Granddaughter happy. So, I would love to be able to design matching outfits for little girls and their dolls. Maybe outfits that reflect a career or hobby would be nice.

Diane

January 03, 2019

1. I would love to learn tricks to keep seams smooth when working with such small clothing.

Rebecca

January 03, 2019

I’d live to take a Pixie Faire class about adapting existing patterns to fit my dolls who don’t have their own pattern line such as Zwergnase or Chrissy. My favorite Pixie Faire class is the one I take next because each gives me more confidence and quality.

Heather Roy

January 03, 2019

Lorretta

January 03, 2019

Patty Gennario

January 03, 2019

I would love to take a Pixie Faire class to help me design doll clothes. Sometimes I know what I want to make but I don’t have the right pattern.
I think my favorite course would be the design academy so I wouldn’t get frustrated by not having a pattern for what I want to make.

Lucy

January 03, 2019

I would love to take the Pattern Academy course and learn how to make my own patterns. I get ideas, and draw them out, but don’t know how to take them from concept to fruition. Thanks to Pixie Faire for all the ways you have enriched me already.

Penny Lou Clark

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a Pixie Fairie class because learning new skills is a wonderful thing!

Lois

January 03, 2019

“I’D LOVE TO TAKE A PIXIE FAIRE CLASS THAT SHOWS ME HOW TO sew such little clothing items.

Christina

January 03, 2019

Pattern Academy is likely the course I’d choose first but what I’d love is a course specifically on pattern grading as I’m really only interested in seeing for 16" Girl for All Time dolls. There are so many 18" historical patterns that I’d like to adapt, not to mention human historical patterns that would be fun to translate. Thanks for the contest opportunity!

Beverly

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a Pixie Faire class that shows me how to work more easily with such tiny pattern pieces.

Tanya

January 03, 2019

2. MY FAVORITE PIXIE FAIRE COURSE IS I’m not sure of the courses BECAUSE I’ve never done this before. So, on that note, anything that I could learn would become a blessing in its own path. I really want to learn anything I can. There is never enough education for sewing and making doll clothes!"

Tracy

January 03, 2019

I would love to take ANY Pixie Faire class. I have been debating on taking them to improve all my sewing skills.

Bill Young

January 03, 2019

I would love to take a Pixie Faire class that shows me how to convert my mental designs into flat-paper patterns, particularly for historical garments. I would very much like to have American Civil War gowns for my girl dolls and perhaps suitable uniforms for my boy doll. I think it would be a lot of fun to create the gowns, but my skills at designing on such a small scale are definitely not what they need to be.

Ali

January 03, 2019

I’D LOVE TO TAKE A PIXIE FAIRE CLASS THAT SHOWS ME HOW TO avoid all the common mistakes made when learning to sew doll clothes.

Juanita Welch Owenby

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a Pixie Faire class, regardless of what it teaches. I love to learn, and I’m sure Pixie Faire would teach me a lot. I’ve collected, repaired, remade, and outfitted dolls all my life. So, it would be nice to take a course that teaches any tricks of the trade for making small items, and especially making bodies for dolls. And, in my life of 76 years, I’ve only sold two dolls, but have given away many. My husband is very tolerant, and our home is a decoration of my dolls.

Rashawnda

January 03, 2019

I’D LOVE TO TAKE A PIXIE FAIRE CLASS THAT SHOWS ME HOW TO make waistbands, insert zippers, and create plackets better. I have been a self taught seamstress for about 10 years but I would love to take a course and learn from a different perspective.

Tabitha

January 03, 2019

I’D LOVE TO TAKE A PIXIE FAIRE CLASS THAT SHOWS ME HOW TO sew with boning.

Juanita Lanaux

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a pixie faire class that shows me how to create my own patterns for Ellowyne and Journey Girl. Once I have the knowledge, the possibilities will only be limited by my imagination. Which has no limit.

My favorite Pixie Faire course is the Pattern Academy because the purpose is to teach me how to take a sloper and make patterns from my designs, which is exactly what I need.

Maureen Tehan

January 03, 2019

Loved to take a Pixie Faire class, that was all about shoes and boots for the American Girl Doll

Linda

January 03, 2019

Tanya

January 03, 2019

I have become quite the avid sewer on doll clothes. To me they are the most satisfying and the results are so pleasing. So many times I see an outfit that is either for an adult or child and would love to learn how to take that pattern and reduce it to fit the doll. The possibilities would then become quite endless and a whole new world would open up for me. Learning how to do chiffon is probably the hardest challenge for me along with doing a rolled hem. I have all the gadgets (sewing feet), just quite clueless on how to make them all work, along with knowing which fabric and needle.

Jan

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take the Pixie Faire designing class and learn how to make different styles from basic patterns…as well as be able to make clothing for different size dolls without having to buy all the patterns :)

Beth

January 03, 2019

I’d love to take a Pixie Faire class to alter patterns for other size dolls. My great nieces’ 18" dolls are different brands and have different size bodies. Thanks for the contest!
