Doll Pattern Update: Coming soon!

My dolls were some of my very first patterns. Although they got the stamp of approval from testers & customers, the more I learn about designing, the more I feel my dolls could be improved! So I am finally doing something about it! 

I am currently working on updating all of my Doll Patterns!! It is a very big project that includes making several dolls, painting eyes, taking pictures, editing pictures & retyping the pattern. I will also be sending each revised pattern to testers all over again!


The revisions are fairly minor & focus on simplifying steps but also improving proportions or shape. So far I have only worked on the dolls themselves, although I do plan to revisit each outfit as well. All of the revised dolls will have attach-as-you-go limbs to eliminate sewing!


As for timeline, I am hesitant to give an estimated release date, but I will post progress pictures as I go along. If you're interested in staying up to date follow me on InstagramFacebook

Interested in purchasing patterns?
  
I highly recommend purchasing patterns on Ravelry. It is the only store (that I use) that allows me to send an update to everyone who purchased a pattern & make it immediately available to them.

Already purchased doll patterns?
  
Ravelry Customers: You will receive a Ravelry message and/or email when an update has been posted so you can download the new pattern. *Important: the current Sister outfits will be replaced with a new outfit! Make sure you download the current PDF before the update if you would like to keep the original outfit patterns!*

Etsy or Craftsy customers: Email featherbyandfriends@hotmail.com including your username & order number. Please include "Request for Doll Update" in the subject line of the email. If you purchased dolls or outfits in separate orders please include the order number for each order. I will email you the updated PDF for the items you purchased as they are available.
