Hi everyone,

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.

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.

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!
