I just finished my "FOLLIES SHOWGIRL" pattern.
It's a digital e-pattern you can download in a PDF file.
She stands about 17 inches (22" with headdress), and dressed in a vintage style showgirl costume--- although, I think this would make a great "basic doll" pattern for anything you wanted to design for it.
The legs are cut "in one" with the body, while the head and arms are separate pieces. (I had to make 3 samples to get the pattern right!) There's a wire armature inside the body & legs to help her stand up, while glued to a wood base.
I've included instructions for both feathers and a non-feathers (ruffles) costume, as I thought it might be a problem for some people to get a hold of some feathers if they don't have a craft store in their city.
This pattern is listed both on my ETSY site (ArleyDollDesigns), and my WEB SITE (ArleyBerryhill).
Ooooh, I've been watching "Penny Dreadful" on Netflix, and I think I have an idea for my next pattern! (Victorian Gothic anyone???)
Have fun!
