Review #1

Great Book - Well worth the price!!

If you are interested in creating or dressing Miniature Doll House size dolls, this is the book for you!! It is being used in a class we are taking now and is just great.
There are pages and pages of patterns within the book and these come with instructions on how to create them.
Buy this one and you'll have the best dressed Miniature ladies, gents and little ones ever.





Review #2

Great book for all skill levels and lots of historic fashions.

I use this book all the time, for both dressing miniature dolls as well as a reference for historic periods and the fashions popular for a particular era. There was one thing I wasn't crazy about when I first got this book. The drawings for the patterns as well as the color photographs of completed dressed dolls are almost never on the same page as the intructions for sewing a particular pattern. I now have about a dozen little markers in my book to make it easier for me to quickly find what I need when I'm working on a doll. I also felt that a few more sources as to where to acquire the necessary materials for doll dressing should have been included. The book, with those exceptions mentioned above, is overall very good and extremely helpful. It's one of the only ones available with such detail on dressing 1/12 dolls.




Review #3

Hurray for Sue Atkinson!

This is the most useful book possible for anybody interested in making dollhouse dolls and dressing them appropriately and authentically. Everything is covered in this very practical book. Directions are clear. Materials are shown and described, and all the steps are illustrated clearly. Very highly recommended.
