So many great ideas to get your creativity flowing.
by Customer at September 06th, 1999
Reading this book will give you so much inspiration you'll soon be creating on your own. I can't help looking at a pattern or a plain dress and thinking how I could use another idea from 101 Bodice Designs. She even gives info on how to sew a basic dress and an adjustment chart for various size dolls. I love this little book!
