Get To Know Margie (In Her Own Words)

"I have always had a love of sewing and have been fascinated with manipulating fabric since being taught by my gran from around the age of 7. In more recent years, besides general sewing, I have made and taught quilting and dabble with crochet and knitting. My love of dolls was put on hold for many years until several years ago when I happened upon Pixie Faire’s site and fell in love with all the outfits and beautiful dolls.

Living in South Africa, good quality dolls are not readily available, but a month after venturing into the doll world, my son surprised me with my beautiful AG Julie and with much encouragement from him, my late husband and awesome friends, I started designing dolls’ clothes. My pattern catalogue and doll family have both grown over the years of what has been the most wonderful experience and which I wouldn’t trade for the world."

Inquiring Minds Want To Know:

Q: What inspired your brand name?
When my son gave me my first AG – Julie – I referred to her as Miss Muffett and took it from there.

Q: What’s your favorite sewing tip?
If you’re having a spot of bother with a particular step, walk away. Have a cup of coffee, walk around your garden, play with your pet. Whatever you do, relax. When you get back to sewing, the problem is usually a lot easier to face.

Q: Is there a new hobby, craft, or skill you’d like to learn?
As me and my serger are not on speaking terms, I’d really like to get to know how to use it (without tying myself up in knots). I’d also love to get back to working on some new stained glass pieces.

Q: Who is your favorite doll?
As far as my favorite doll is concerned - Julie will always be my first love as my son gave her to me, but I don't think she is right for all my designs.

Q: What’s your favorite flower or plant?
Being an avid flower arranger, I’m very fond of all flowers and plants and have several favorites – roses, wisteria, jasmine, gladioli, mimosa and magnolias to name a few.

Q: What would you say is the most daring or exciting thing you’ve ever done?
I’m not very good with heights, so taking the cable car to visit the statue of Christ the Redeemer on Corcovado in Rio was terrifying, but absolutely beautiful and so worth it.

So many favorites! But I am very intrigued by the Little Equestrienne” historical costume, it includes many techniques that I am not familiar with and I love that it is a complete outfit.

My two favorite patterns are Time to Celebrate and Rivieria Romper. I have Time to Celebrate in all the sizes. I made Riviera Romper for one of my AGAT dolls and withe sunglasses she reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. There are many more I want to try.

I’m crazy about Little Miss Muffett patterns. The fit is always perfect, and the patterns are easily customizable for use with a wide range of fabrics. I’d be hard pressed to choose my favorite pattern. I’ve never made one that didn’t turn out great. They’re a hit with little girls.

There are a lot of patterns that I like but if I had to pick a favorite I suppose the Provence pattern be it. It looks exactly like the Lolita dress I sometimes see on Pinterest

They are all so cute, since I am in summer mode I would say Sailing Away is a favorite. Although summer is the time for travel and the Parisian outfit would be perfect for a trip abroad.

Sailing Away 18” is a perfect way to sail into the summer. The trimmed-hooded swim cover is adorable sling with the beach pant cover up. The designer has a large Summer selection of outfits to select from. Each prettier than the next for 19” dolls.

Thank you for such interesting patterns. I have especially enjoyed the Yuletide dress, cherry blossom and shepherdess patterns. I find the proportions are perfect for a realistic look with your focus on details .

Wow! I have loved your outfits for a while now. I was wondering if you thought about the SmartDoll by Danny Choo? The outfits not only look great on them but I would love to see these dolls matching the 18” dolls.

Margie is wonderfully skilled and creative, and it’s hard to choose just one favourite design! I’m drawn to “Faerie Web” because of the ethereal quality of the fabric and pattern, and also because my Nanny always spelled “faerie” the old way – with an “E,” instead of “fairy.” I would LOVE to win the Parisian outfit for my AG Grace doll, whose story is linked to Paris! Thanks for the chance!

I’m a huge fan of Margie’s patterns, particularly anything that’s steampunk or punk rock-ish. Though Miss Junior High and Snow Dancer (actually all the snowy/wintry patterns!) are adorable too! Keep on doing what you’re doing – we can’t wait to see what you come up with next! :)

YOU REALLY EXPECT US TO CHOOSE JUST ONE! HA! HA! Like others, I LOVE them all. I have LOTS of Little Miss Muffett patterns. Shepherdess, Lacy Days, Provence….ALL different, but unique. Rainy Days was one of the FIRST patterns I purchased on Pixie Faire. I DO like the frills, the ruffles, the DETAIL she puts into her patterns. All I can say is: KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, Margie! Thanks for adding to my wonderful collection of AM patterns. AA+++
