Hi everyone,
On Friday (December 29th, 2017) we are offering a free doll clothes pattern from Cherie Peden of Ma Petite Cherie Couture. Be sure to vote today and then come back and get your copy of the winning pattern on Friday.
More About Cherie: I have been sewing since I was about 4 years old. I learned to sew at my mothers knee. I learned to sew Barbie clothes not by hand but by machine. I remember when I was about 10 seeing an outfit that my Grandmother had made for her Barbie that she had done completely by hand and thinking why would anyone take that kind of time. I learned to crochet at age 7 again under my mothers watchful eye. I also learned to knit but as crochet builds faster knitting fell the way of hand sewing I do if needed. I am the wife to a software engineer and mother to 4 daughters that I home schooled for most of their elementary years. When I am not designing and writing doll clothes patterns I work as a teachers aide in a private school.

More About Each Pattern:
The Tumbling Scallops Crochet Pattern For 18" Dolls: With this pattern you can crochet a square neck dress with cap sleeves and tumbling scallops on the skirt. The dress opens in the back with 3 buttons and chain button holes. It has the option of a tulle sash or crocheted belt and bow. Instructions for the separate tulle underskirt are also included. This pattern will fit most 18 inch dolls such as American Girl®.
Spring Tulips Shrug Crochet Pattern for 18" Dolls: Does Dolly need a light summery cover-up? Spring tulips is the answer. This versatile shrug can be worn over a dressy outfit or used as a fancy swim suit cover-up. It features an inverted modified pineapple motif that resembles an upside down tulip.
Pineapple and Shells Skirt Crochet Pattern for 18" Dolls: Beautiful shells turn into a pretty pineapple hem in this mid calf skirt. It can be worn either at the true waist or as a drop waisted skirt. For a beautiful soft skirt try a bamboo thread instead of the traditional cotton.
Also included in this PDF pattern is a bonus slip pattern that has been designed to be worn underneath the skirt. This pattern is designed to fit 18" dolls with a waist measurement up 10.5” and a hip measurement of 12”.
Ruby Dreams Dress for 18" Dolls: The second in the Precious Stones line of dresses, Ruby Dreams is just that - a dreamy dress with a simple collar that serves as the sleeve, and ties in the back with a beautiful drape to the hem. What girl would not love to wear this to her next party? This PDF sewing pattern is designed to fit 18 inch dolls such as American Girl®.

Absolutely love Spring Tulips…all are beautiful. Thanks for the opportunity to get one free.
Thank you for the Ruby Dreams dress.
I really wish one of the crochet patterns would have won, especially the Tumbling Scallops dress.
They are all nice but my grand daughters and I vote for the Ruby Dreams dress
I love the Tumbling Scallops outfit. The design is sweet and luxurious, I would love to make its for my AG doll. Thank you for these wonderful patterns.
I really like Spring Tulip. This can go with so many different outfits and I could see myself making it longer to use like a duster type coat.
Thank you Cherie and Pixie Faire….My vote is for Ruby Dreams dress.
All patterns are really cute. I’m thinking the red dress would be fun to make.
I don’t crochet, but, happily, I know someone who does. I love Spring Tulips.
My vote is for Ruby Dreams dress. Thank you Cherie and Pixie Faire
Thanks for offering these beautiful patterns. I voted for Ruby Dreams since I don’t crochet. Ruby Dreams is adorable and unlike anything else I have.
I’m teaching myself to crochet, so any pattern would be appreciated. Thank you very much
I don’t crochet.
Cherie, these are all beautiful patterns. Thank you for the opportunity to own one of them. I voted for the shrug, but any of them would be wonderful. And thank you Cinnamon for all you do.
Wish I could sew
Ruby Dreams…I wish I knew how to crochet!

Ruby Dreams, I don’t crochet much
Ruby dreams dress. Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
The Ruby Dreams Dress is my choice. Its lines are elegant and the design is so unusual. All four designs are beautiful, but my crochet skills are limited. Thank you Cherie for the offer of such beautiful patterns.
Thank you so much for your generosity, Cherie!
I enjoy your patterns and look forward to tomorrow’s winner.
It’s difficult to decide. I do like to crochet but dislike knitting, so . . . what do I choose?
Tough decision!
I like the Ruby Dress.
Love the dress, thank you for sharing
I voted for the Ruby gown only because I can sew faster than I crochet! Thank you Cherie, all of your patterns are lovely!
I love the tumbling scallops dress but all of them are lovely. Thank you for offering them all.
I think the Tumbling Scallops dress is very pretty thank you for offering crochet patterns too. It makes it so I can take my love of making doll clothes with on trips or to appointments.
Ruby dreams, even tho I do crochet!!!!
Thanks so much for offering your patterns. I vote for Ruby Dreams as I also don’t crochet.
I like “Ruby Dreams” Like all the crotchet outfits, just don’t have the time. Thank You Also this dress reminds me of an evening gown Sold in a bridal shop I was employed at.
I choose Ruby Dreams since I unfortunately can’t crochet. Thanks for the options
Thanks to Cherie and Pixie Faire for making this amazing offer. they are all awesome!
je préfère Ruby Dreams Dress for 18" Dolls je ne sais pas faire le crochet surtout en langue anglaise dommage pour moi merci
They are all so cute but unfortunately i do not crochet… I voted for the Ruby Dreams dress! Thank you Cherie! So adorable!
Thanks so much, Cherie, for making your patterns available! I was excited to see that they are crochet! I can crochet! (But not knit!) I love the Tumbling Scallops, it is so elegant.
Thank you for all the lovely options. I’m not good at such fine crochet but adore the beautiful dress sewing pattern.
Thank you for offering the great choice of patterns. It’s so exciting to see the crochet patterns. I love to crochet, it’s so relaxing to do while watching TV.
I would have to pick the Ruby Dreams dress because I can only crochet dish cloths!
I really like the Tumbling Scallops Dress. I love to crochet dresses for dolls and for baby girls.
Cute patterns! Tumbling Scallops seems to be the favorite but I have to cast a vote for the pineapple and shells skirt. I can see this for a beach coverup for a stroll down the Boardwalk.
I’m very new to crocheting so these are too skilled for me. I will have to vote for the Ruby Dreams dress. Although I do like the Tumbling Scallops dress.

I voted for the Tumbling Scallops dress. I haven’t crocheted in years as I prefer to knit and have forgotten a lot. I guess I’ll have to work on the skills again.
Thank you, Cherie, for the cute patterns.
Love the Tumbling Scallops dress. I have my materials all picked out. Thank you for a wonderful pattern. No matter which one wins
I’m so happy that I can crochet and vote for Tumbling Scallops! This is a lovely pattern!
Thank you Cherie for your generosity. Unfortunately, I do not knit or crochet so I only had the one choice. However, I am grateful for whichever pattern wins.
Wish I could crochet…but I can’t. I do love the Ruby Dreams dress, too, so I’m voting for it. Very grateful for Friday Freebie patterns. Thank you!
Thank you Cherie – what a great choice of patterns!
My vote is the Ruby Dreams
Tumbling Scallops because I love the color.
I choose the Ruby Dream.
I don’t know how to crochet so intermediate patterns would be impossible for me, so I’m voting for the ruby dress.
The patterns are all great, but I sew better than crochet, so Ruby Dream gets my vote this time. Thank you Cherie for giving us all the chance to have one of your awesome patterns. I love the pineapple and shells skirt the most, but don’t have the skills to make it yet. Merci once again.
I have the tumbling scallops dress for Disney animators and the 18" dolls. I love it and would recommend it to anyone who crochet! I voted for the shrug this time, but they are all great.
I voted for the Ruby Red Dress. Thank you Cherie for the cute patterns for this weeks giveaway
I would love the tumbling scallops dress I know there are many that don’t crochet I wish they would give us a chance that do thank you
Thank you for offering a pattern this week! All the choices would be beautiful additions to a wardrobe! I haven’t crocheted in years, but I voted for Tumbling Scallops. It’s a very cute dress! Thank you again and all the best to everyone in the new year!
Ruby Dreams is my fave. I don’t know how to crocket.
Ruby dreams
They are all so pretty but I don’t crochet so I’ll vote for the Ruby Dreams dress. I love the back of it. Thank you!
tumbling scallops.. it’s beautiful, and I can work on it anywhere!!
Pineapple and shells is my favorite.
They are all lovely, but I have to choose the crocheted dress. I would love to try that one. Thank you so much for the beautiful choices this week
They are all lovely. I particularly like the crocheted dress. Unfortunately, I don’t crochet.
I love the crochet, but I am not skilled enough to make any of these items.
Wish I could.
Love the princess lines of the Ruby Dreams dress. I’ve not seen this pattern before. See many creative ideas to include for options.
Thanks, Sandy
All are adorable. Thank you for offering these. Don’t crochet – so Ruby Dreams – just so petty.
Red Ruby Dress is my choice. As I too, do not crochet nor knit. Just sewing is my choice. Crochet is pretty not good for little girls to play with, I have seen some sad dresses come to me , to see if I could repair.
The ruby red dress ,please I too do not crochet .
I voted for the tumbling scallops dress, but we love them all!
Tumbling scallops for me . How adoreagle this will be and so much fun to make. It’s hard to pick this week. Love all the choices. Thank you.
Since I don’t crochet I voted for the red dress. How kind of you to share your patterns. Thank you.
Tumbling scallops dress. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas.
Thank you Cheri, your designs are cute. I am not skilled in crochet so I voted for the ruby dress.
Need to teach this art to our children and grands. The tumbling petals is a perfect pattern to get child’s attention. TY.
Everything was lovely but I can’t crochet so Ruby dreams please.
I voted for Ruby Dreams. My favorite is Tumbling Scallops, but I don’t crochet.
I made the crochet garments. They very beautiful and so easy to follow. You have gorgeous patterns. Thank you
Thank you so much! I would love the Tumbling Scallops dress. So many crocheted AG clothes are kind of clunky looking but this is beautiful.
All are cute but since I do not know how to crochet, I voted for the Ruby Dreams dress. Love how the top flows into a tie in the back. Thank you again to all the designers that offer free patterns and thank you Pixie Faire.
They all look fabulous… and I’m so glad to see us crocheters get some love (I can’t knit to save my life hehe)! And that ruby dress… so cute! It’s tough to just pick one lol! Thank you for sharing these!
