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.

Dawn Dolls by Topper Toys
After a trip to the salesroom at the 2015 National Barbie Doll Collector's Convention, I managed to find a Dawn doll by Topper Toys in pretty good condition. This doll did not have the green knees that many of the Dawn dolls appear to have by this age. She's from the 1970s and had a variety of male and female friends. While this doll is a little taller than all the dolls in Dolly Bureau volume 3, some of her clothes, shoes and accessories fit smaller dolls in the book.
Dawn looks pretty similar in size to the Mattel RockFlowers. Dawn is a bit taller than Picco Neemo (pictured below) and some clothing can be shared between the dolls. It seems like the shoes do not work out very well between the dolls, but Dawn shoes can be squeezed pretty tightly onto Picco feet (also pictured below).

Tiny Dolls: Madame Alexander Toys
In keeping with the theme of Dolly Bureau volume 3, we are still focusing on tiny dolls. Another interesting and affordable option for tiny doll collecting are the Madame Alexander McDonalds toys. They are only 4.7in/11.8cm tall. Many of them are based on the Wizard of Oz, but others can be found, such as the doll pictured above.
Her eyes don't close and the clothes don't really come off, but she is a cute tiny version of the larger Madame Alexander dolls.
Stay tuned for sales on Dolly Bureau books and MegannArt products in the very near future.
