I’ve loved American Girl dolls since I was a girl and started sewing for my Felicity shortly after I bought her. Oh how I loved those dolls! However, my collection slowly ended up in a wooden trunk and by the time I was in High School I figured I was too old for dolls. I visited my parent’s home after I got married and dusted off my doll collection. I realized I had never outgrown them and decided to take them with me across the Atlantic to my new apartment in Germany.

After getting back into sewing, I was inspired by “Keepers Dolly Duds” doll clothes designs. I went through lots of fabric and became quite familiar with my seam ripper during those first few years. After I was confident enough in my finished products, I set up an Etsy shop, had my photography-inclined sister show me how to take good pictures and was ecstatic when my first outfit sold within a day! Since then, I have sold several other dresses and have published two patterns (sold via PIxie Faire).
