"I'm making a doll." I answered.
"For meeeeeee?" he asked.
"It can be for you," I said, "If you like it." He looked at the photo printed on the pattern.
"Mama, I would really like a Cinderella doll. She would look beeeee - u - tea - full with blond hair, a blue dress, and a crown I can take off." Well, what could I say to that?
So I'd like you to meet Cinderella. Everything I used came from my stash: felt, fabric, ribbon, lace, etc. The lace is amazing! A few years ago a friend of mine came to visit with a couple of her friends who were interior decorators. They brought my a bunch of old wallpaper sample books and several little bolts of that vintage lacy stuff. It has been quite handy to have around for little projects like this.
I love this doll pattern. She stands up beautifully. I might have to make a "Bowling for Princesses" game next. Report cards come out soon so I'll have to see how the time goes...

Oh I love her! She's gorgeous. What perfect taste your son has :-)
Yes, I'd say your son is destined to become a famour fashion designer - and he'll always come back to you to produce the original of each new idea!
Cinderella turned out just great! With your son's ideas and your talent ... wow! Can't wait to see what's next : )
Liz, I love it. She is so adorable.
She's very cute! And great that you already had everything you needed to make her. :)
Too sweet.
Love the idea of princess bowling, by the way, that made me chuckle :-)
She is adorable! Love it, love it, love it!
I think I need that pattern.
I love the doll, that smile, those lashes and the PINK crown!
The toilet episode is truly hilarious!
How sweet! I can't let me daughter see this or I'll be making the entire cast of all the Disney princess movies.
Love it :)
