I have the hardest time finding zippers for doll sized clothing.
I shop mostly at Joann’s fabric for whatever I might need, I am from a small town.I having been sewing for so many years, I am well supplied with most anything and everything.. I do like your patterns, I get the Friday freebies. I bought one a few weeks ago that was called the Sleuth of 1930, my granddaughter loved it. I even learned to make shoes from tape. The hardest thing is making shoes like boots and such. I’m also good at crocheting so I would say my granddaughter is pretty lucky for getting so many clothes for her doll.
