Hi everyone,
On Friday (February 3rd, 2017) we'll have one of the following four doll clothes patterns available for free. This week we're featuring the inspiring work of Marilyn Clarkin and her brand QTπ Doll Clothing.
More About Marilyn In Her Own Words: “I am happily married to my wonderful husband Richard and we are blessed with three beautiful daughters. My professional background is in children’s ministries, but I have enjoyed sewing for over 20 years. Throughout the years I have sewn for local dance schools and theatres groups. With three daughter I have sewn my fair share little girls clothes. In spring 2013 my love for sewing doll clothes began and in March 2014, I started designing patterns for 18” dolls such as American Girl® and Maplelea®. I enjoy designing and creating modern everyday clothing and shoes. I love keeping up with current fashion and recreating it.
Help us decide which one of Marilyn's patterns should be free by voting below. Then come back on Friday to see which pattern won and get the free download.

Thank you so much for sharing your patterns with us, Marilyn. I love making shoes and boots, so I voted for the Dorel Boots, but any one of these patterns will be great to add to the library.
All beautiful. You are so generous to offer Friday Freebies!! I vote for the Dolman top. Adorable!!
Thank you so very much for the weekly free patterns. I vote the Dolman Top.
Thank you so very much Marilyn and Pixie Faire for a chance to get another Freebie Friday pattern. I have always loved the idea of having several options in one pattern which makes it usable for more than one thing to make. So my vote goes to Fooling around Fooler. We use to call these Dickies when I was a girl growing up in the 1960’s. Pretend collars.
Wow, this is a really hard one since they are ALL so cute. I too would like to say thank you for all the free patterns I have received and will receive in the future. I love your patterns and have purchased a few of them already. I also like the fact that you are also in the same city as me. I didn’t know that.
