In Dolly Bureau (vol 3), I made a few patterns for tiny dolls, one of which is a design for PukiPuki. Pictured below is the final result of the pattern, which has easy-to-follow written and illustrated instructions in the book. Best of all, the clothing should fit other dolls like Mattel Kelly and Ruby Red Galleria's Honee-B.
Drafting Pattern in Dolly Bureau Volume 3
The most recent installment of Dolly Bureau volume 3 focuses on tiny dolls, but some of the crafts and sewing patterns can be used for dolls of multiple sizes. The picture below is a drafting dress pattern that would use a combination of knitted and tulle/lace fabrics. Dream High Studio's Lulu is pictured. She's so tiny!
Long Dress for MSDs and Ellowyne Wilde
This new pattern combines a whole lot of things I love -- white eyelet fabric, lace, long dresses, ribbon, and my new KoonieS. As some of you may know, I have a few Peak's Woods dolls, but I was glad to add KoonieS to the family.
The dress pictured is a pattern available in my Etsy shop. I am trying to put out quite a few more digital patterns in the near future, so stay tuned for plenty more dolly sewing options in the weeks to come.

Going Digital: Printable Patterns
Unfortunately, the Dolly Bureau books are not in a digital format. However, after careful consideration, I've decided to offer other patterns in a digital format (pdf). They will be available soon on Etsy and most of the first wave of patterns will be for some ball-jointed dolls and Ellowyne Wilde. See the photo in this post for a preview. Some of the fashions are currently available in the Etsy shop. Support an artist! Visit my Etsy Shop. You can also follow my Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest pages.
What Fits Petite Blythe (LPS)?
Pictured above is a darling Petite Blythe (Littlest Pet Shop version). I've tried on a few of my small doll items to see what will fit her. In the picture above, she is wearing an Amelia Thimble nightgown. The length of the nightgown and sleeves are a little long for the doll, but it still looks quite cute on her. While quite a few people don't seem to like the Littlest Pet Shop (LPS) Blythe compared to the Petite Blythe, I actually prefer one important aspect of the LPS Blythe -- the shoes! Unlike Petite Blythe, the LPS Blythe have shoes that come off the dolls and I love exchanging the shoes. Pictured below are some Polly Pocket shoes and accessories I've paired with a LPS Blythe.
Personally, I try to avoid some of the backless pumps from Polly Pocket because they look a little too big on the LPS Blythe. Many of the other Polly Pocket accessories go great with LPS Blythe too.
