More About Joyce In Her Own Words: "When I was a young girl, my mom would give me $1.04 and turn me loose in the local Dime Store. I would head straight for the fabric section. I learned quickly that this amount would buy four choices of fabric at ¼ yard each. An entire wardrobe for my dolls! After 50 years of sewing ‘people’ clothes, my granddaughters introduced me to their American Girl dolls. It was so easy to get back into sewing doll clothes. Sewing for dolls is a dream. They never complain, and they have no opinion about style or color. They just smile and love everything I make for them.
I’ve recently discovered that I enjoy designing doll clothes, then turning my designs into patterns so others can make them. As I searched for an outlet for my patterns, I found Pixie Faire. What a great group of people to be involved with."

Joyce, your patterns are all so lovely! Thank you so much for offering one free this week. My vote went immediately to the Butterfly dress because my mom and I both made similar dresses in the 1960’s. We loved reversible dresses like these. They were great to pack for trips, doubled our fashion options, and they always looked fresh and pretty. I love how the lining peeks out and becomes its own design component. Definitely bright and cheery and ready for a fun outing. Many thanks and God bless!

I have the butterfly frock pattern and have made it several times. I made it for Christmas in a red pinwale corduroy fabric with candy cane appliques instead of the butterflies. I made a white turtleneck to wear underneath since its cold outside. It turned out adorable. If I didn’t already have the pattern, I’d vote for it!!

I kept going back and forth between 2 of the designs but opted for the one that I felt I would make right away. I actually just liked the way the petal skirt looked in a solid color. I’ll have to look at tops to go with it now.

What cute patterns! I voted for the butterfly frock. I can see it in many fabrics. The buttons are a nice touch without having to make buttonholes!
Heather McLaughlin

Christine
December 26, 2018
I love the butterfly frock, several of the little girls I sew for are very young, and the new,styles are not what they enjoy playing with. Little ten dresses, simple shift dresses and a line are perfect for them, this is simple, but you have really decked it out and made it adorable. I will be happy with whatever wins, and thankyou for the opportunity to have one of your designs. I’m a huge pixie faire fan, and am on a mission to own every pattern. I have made a good dent in my wish list. Yhankyou so much.

Thank you Joyce for all of the cute patterns to choose from. I like all of them and as a cobbler I would love to have those belts for boots. However I voted for the Dainty Ruffled dress. I think it looks adorable and there are so many ways to change it around with fabric choices.
