Hi everyone,
On Friday (December 28th) we'll have a free pattern available from Joyce Goetz, the talented designer of the Pink Ladybug pattern brand. Help us decide which pattern should be free and be sure to come back on Friday to download your free copy!
More About Joyce In Her Own Words: "When I was a young girl, my mom would give me $1.04 and turn me loose in the local Dime Store. I would head straight for the fabric section. I learned quickly that this amount would buy four choices of fabric at ¼ yard each. An entire wardrobe for my dolls! After 50 years of sewing ‘people’ clothes, my granddaughters introduced me to their American Girl dolls. It was so easy to get back into sewing doll clothes. Sewing for dolls is a dream. They never complain, and they have no opinion about style or color. They just smile and love everything I make for them.
I’ve recently discovered that I enjoy designing doll clothes, then turning my designs into patterns so others can make them. As I searched for an outlet for my patterns, I found Pixie Faire. What a great group of people to be involved with."

Just saw on Facebook there is no Freebie Friday today
Can anyone help with info regarding Freebie Friday for 4 January 2018. Haven’t been able to find it either.
I haven’t seen anything on the Freebie Friday either. I’ve gotten several emails for the other stuff but no explanation for this. I’m baffled as well.
Are they changing Pixie Faire for this new year to not give away the free pattern on Fridays anymore. I haven’t seen any vote posting or an explaination. Does anyone know what’s going on?
For the last 2-3 weeks I have not gotten my e-mail for Freebie Friday, not only that I have not been able to vote,the icon to vote doesn’t work. I tried to look at the new patterns to vote on tonight 1-3-2019 and there are none , what’s up ?
