    My favorite style of fashion (for me) is Mod late1960s Edwardian. I’d like a basic doll pattern that would encompass almost all eras. The pattern would include choices of waist line, style of sleeves and collars. I’d like one doll pattern that could make a medieval, modern or victorian fashion. I’d also like a pattern for underpants. No more bare doll bottoms.
