Product Description Christina Harris has applied her significant dressmaking talents to creating a great new collection of dolls' clothes to make. Whether looking for an everyday outfit, or a really special ensemble to display their favourite doll in, the enthusiast will find plenty of choice here. There are designs for dolls sized from 14 inches to 24 inches, both adult and child styles, in all of the most popular period fashions. From the Victorian era comes a walking out costume, a smart travelling coat complete with astrakhan trim, and an enchanting nightdress with mop cap. There's a classic Edwardian Norfolk tweed suit and a stylish leg 'o mutton sleeved jacket with matching skirt. Twentieth-century styles feature fashions from the 1920s and 30s, as well as a glamorous 1950s 'Prom' dress. All the designs are versatile, as the author's sketched variations on the made-up outfits will show. Finally, the chapter featuring storybook characters such as Scarlett O'Hara, Dorothy from the Land of Oz, and Rapunzel provides that something extra special.

Somewhat Disappointed December 3, 2008 I bought this book wanting to make glorious doll clothes like those shown on the cover. It was a bit of a let down, because you had to have the actual dolls to size the clothes on. Directions might read "measure the dolls waist and add a half an inch". I ended up selling the book to a doll shop owner because it did not fit my needs.
Very nice and complete overview. January 4, 2007 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have been very happy to discover this book. It gives lots of ideas and the models can be used as base for new creations ! A little girl's dream becomes reality...Many thanks.
