Hi everyone,

More About Helen In Her Own Words: "When I was a child, my family didn't really need to ask what gift I wanted. There was one answer: "A doll." I grew up but I still have so much love in my heart for dolls.
Both of my grannies loved sewing. I began to sew at the age of eight by hand for my baby dolls. My mother taught me to knit. When I turned fifteen I started to sew and knit clothes for myself.
Designing for dolls started for me when my daughter went to school. I was looking for something to do, and my search led to discovering a whole world of dolls and doll fashion.
Now I'm glad to be a part of the Pixie Faire team and engage in my favourite hobbies!"

More About Each Pattern
Flutter Sleeve Top Designed to Fit 19" Gotz® Dolls: Sew this top for your doll, and she will flutter like a butterfly! You can finish the flutter sleeves edges with a rolled hem or leave raw edge finishes as shown in the photo.
The top can be sewn from one fabric or you can select another fabric companion for the flutter sleeves to your liking.
Pajama Top Designed to Fit 19" Gotz® Dolls: Do you like to sew? I'm sure you have tons of fabric scraps. Making this top will help reduce your supplies! For this Pajama top you'll need printed knit fabric, and different solid-colored fabrics for the bottom panel and pocket. The fabric choice will determine what you`ll sew: a pajama top or cute long-sleeve top, for a girl or boy. I chose a cute fabric for pajamas, because my favorite doll likes to hide a candy in her pocket when she goes to bed! If your doll also likes secrets, be sure to sew such pajama top for her.
Tunic and Leggings Designed To Fit 19 Inch Gotz® Dolls: Do you like to combine fabrics? I really love it! This two-piece set does not limit your imagination in the choice of fabric colors. Round Yoke Neckline, Two-tier Ruffled Sleeves and Hem, leggings - every detail can be made with its own color. It is very exciting to look for interesting combinations of colorful fabrics. And it`s an excellent opportunity to use the leftover fabrics from past projects.

Thank yoou Helen. I love the Tunic and leggings pattern.
These are gorgeous! I voted for the flutter sleeve top for 18” American GIrl doll. I love this pattern! Thank you for your generosity!
Hi Helen! Thank you for sharing your talents with us!! I chose the 18" flutter sleeve as I have a couple of 18" dolls already. I also have a good stash of fabrics to chose from to make this cute design! Thanks again!!! ☘☘☘
Thank you Helen, for the lovely pattern choices! My vote is for the 18 inch doll flutter-sleeve pattern.
I voted for the Tunic & Leggings even though I don’t own that size doll. I’m sure I can alter it to fit my dolls and it’s nice for doll owners that own other dolls have a chance to win. Thanks to all for this great pattern giveaway.
