    The dresses that represent the Civil War era are my favorites with prom type dresses coming in a close second for dolls like Ellowyne. The 18" dolls seem so much more realistic in dresses an outfits for preteens, especially fancy dresses and skirts and blouses. Love the patterns available on Pixie Faire.

    I mostly sew for the mini AG dolls, but I have Kirsten, Josefina and Addy. When I sew for my grandsweeties’ 18" dolls, they always want modern clothes. As for which era I would like to see more patterns for, I think I’d have to say Addy’s.

    My favorite era of clothing and fashion is the ’80’s because I was a teenager in the 80’s! I think that the clothing was really cute at that time and not revealing or inappropriate, but fun and colorful. I would love to see a pattern for a sweater that could be monogrammed with embroidery. A small alphabet chart that is doll sized would be so nice, for other clothes too, Easter dresses, purses, oh, we monogrammed everything back then! We all had monogrammed sweaters back then and I loved mine to pieces. Other patterns could be: baggy carpenter pants (works for boy or girl dolls!). Thank you for the chance to win! Nanea is a beautiful doll.

    I started buying these sweet little dolls for my 7yr old grand-daughter last year. There really isn’t any one era that she likes better than the others, she thinks they’re all beautiful, and wants her MiMi to make everything she sees for her AG dolls. If I had to pick one particular era, it would be the late 1800 to the early 1900’s and would love to see more patterns for this time period.
