Hi everyone,

More About Helen In Her Own Words: "When I was a child, my family didn't really need to ask what gift I wanted. There was one answer: "A doll." I grew up but I still have so much love in my heart for dolls.
Both of my grannies loved sewing. I began to sew at the age of eight by hand for my baby dolls. My mother taught me to knit. When I turned fifteen I started to sew and knit clothes for myself.
Designing for dolls started for me when my daughter went to school. I was looking for something to do, and my search led to discovering a whole world of dolls and doll fashion.
Now I'm glad to be a part of the Pixie Faire team and engage in my favourite hobbies!"

More About Each Pattern
Flutter Sleeve Top Designed to Fit 19" Gotz® Dolls: Sew this top for your doll, and she will flutter like a butterfly! You can finish the flutter sleeves edges with a rolled hem or leave raw edge finishes as shown in the photo.
The top can be sewn from one fabric or you can select another fabric companion for the flutter sleeves to your liking.
Pajama Top Designed to Fit 19" Gotz® Dolls: Do you like to sew? I'm sure you have tons of fabric scraps. Making this top will help reduce your supplies! For this Pajama top you'll need printed knit fabric, and different solid-colored fabrics for the bottom panel and pocket. The fabric choice will determine what you`ll sew: a pajama top or cute long-sleeve top, for a girl or boy. I chose a cute fabric for pajamas, because my favorite doll likes to hide a candy in her pocket when she goes to bed! If your doll also likes secrets, be sure to sew such pajama top for her.
Tunic and Leggings Designed To Fit 19 Inch Gotz® Dolls: Do you like to combine fabrics? I really love it! This two-piece set does not limit your imagination in the choice of fabric colors. Round Yoke Neckline, Two-tier Ruffled Sleeves and Hem, leggings - every detail can be made with its own color. It is very exciting to look for interesting combinations of colorful fabrics. And it`s an excellent opportunity to use the leftover fabrics from past projects.
Flutter Sleeve Top Designed To Fit 18" Dolls Such As American Girl®: Sew this top for your doll, and she will flutter like a butterfly! You can finish the flutter sleeve edges with a rolled hem or leave raw edge finishes as in the photo. The top can be sewn from one fabric or you can select another fabric companion for the flutter sleeves to your liking.

I really like the the tunic & leggings. I make so many things for my granddaughters American Girl dolls.
Love the tunic and leggings and so glad they won
I will vote for the DOLL JOY today for the tunic and leggings set.
They all are very cute, but I chose this one because she is the prettiest of them all!!!
thanks for this opportunity! Keep up the good job you are doing in the designing of doll clothes.
Helen thank you for sharing the pattern. I voted for the 19" Gotz tunic & leggings as I thought it would be nice for those dolls to get a free pattern. So glad it won! I only have 18" dolls, well doll actually and even if I don’t adapt it to fit I get a change to check your draft and sewing directions. That rain jacket pattern is mighty tempting!
I also love the tunic and leggings. I will make it fit my granddaughters doll as its way too cute!
Love them all thank you for sharing
The tunic and leggings are just about as cute as a bugs ear. I love the look of them and I don’t have an 19" doll but they get my vote. Thank you so much for your generosity and sharing with us. This just a lovely pattern you are very talented. Thank you very much.
I voted for the tunic and leggings that fits Journey Girls and Gotz,
Thank you for the cute pattern. I only sew for the 18" American Girl so I was happy to see a pattern for her!
All very cute! I voted for the 18’ doll pattern! Thank you so much for this opportunity to add to our doll pattern stash!!
love all your patterns, but the top and leggings would be nice. thank you for all the great patterns you offer for free.
.I love your patterns! Thankyou so much I have only 18 in dolls too. But I’m thinking we could alter the tunic aND leggings pattern for them so I vote for it.
Cute! Cute cute
It is lovely to see patterns for doll sizes other than the common 18" AG-type. Thanks so much! The shirt and leggings gets my vote!
Helen, thank you for offering patterns for other dolls! I have several slim 18-19" dolls that would fit the Gotz patterns. I voted for the tunic and leggings.
I love your pretty designs Helen, especially the tunic and leggings, but am happy with whichever pattern wins the vote. Thank you so much for offering such a cute selection.
I vote for the tunic and leggings set. The set is so cute!
But I don’t have a 19 inch size Gotz Doll. I wonder how I can adjust to fit 18 inch Our Generation dolls.
Beverly, this may seem strange but the difference between the Gotz and AG dolls I have is the behind. My Gotz doll has a bigger behind. I don’t have a problem with pants though. Most patterns I’ve used aren’t super snug fitting so they still work. Of course, the dolls all seem to be different.
I have a Gotz doll. The clothes I’ve made so far, fit both 18 and 19" dolls.
Wish someone would
Post how the gots dolls measure differ from AM dolls and how they are different! Thanks
The Flutter-Sleeve Top looks like a cute top that any little girl would want for her doll, so it gets my vote this week. Thanks, Helen for your offerings this week, and to Cinnamon and her team for the venue.
Thank you for the patterns . they are all nice but i’m voting for the fllutter sleeve.dress.
So adorable! I voted for the shirt to fit AG dolls. I don’t have a Gotz doll but i definitely want one! Thanks for sharing Helen and Cinnamon!
Love this top! Thanks for such great patterns!
Thank you for such wonderful patterns.I would be pleased to have any of them. I voted for the tunic and leggings. I only have an AG doll, but like others I can adjust the pattern to fit. I sew for for 7 little girls and it keeps me busy.The excitement on their faces makes it all worth while.Thank you Cinnamon for your making this happen.
Thanks so much, Helen and Cinnamon. Helen, I want to thank you a lot for designing for Gotz dolls. I have a collection of Hannah and Happy Kidz and it is not easy to find patterns specifically for them. So a big thank you! I voted for the leggings and tunics as I love to mix fabrics. I hope it wins!
Thank you, Helen. These are all beautiful patterns.
Because I have 2 Götz dolls i voted for the tunic and leggings.
Wow all patterns are georgeous hard decision I like them all. Nice job and thanks
je vote pour Tunic and Leggings Designed To Fit 19 Inch Gotz Doll ravissante tenue et pour la poupée gôtz super merci
Thank you Helen for the lovely choice of patterns I voted for the tunic and leggings. I think they will fit my grand daughters our generation doll and I am sure I can adjust the pattern for her American girl dolls. My niece has a Gotz doll so I will let her know so she can vote. It would be nice to see a pattern for a different size doll win.
Thanks for offering such cute patterns for a variety of size dolls.
Лена, очень рада видеть ваши работы в на Пикси и в рамках этой акции. Успехов во всем, спасибо.
I loved the tunic and legging pattern! I have a 19" doll but I don’t have any patterns specifically for her! Thank you for your generosity, Helen.
Thank you so much. I love them all!
Darling outfits! Would love the flutter sleeve top for american girl dolls.
I like the flutter top for a 18" doll. The tunic and leggings are very cute also.
My vote is the 18" Flutter Sleeve Top. Thank you.
Beautiful clothes! It was hard to pick. Thank you, Helen!
Maureen
I voted for the flutter sleeve top for the 18" doll as that is the only one I have. The Gotz dolls don’t look like dolls. They look like little girls. They are precious. I may have to have one of those. Thank you so much Helen and Cinnamon for the pattern.
oh my! I don’t have one of those Gotz dolls. I’m going to have to go shopping they are adorable! but for now, I voted for the flutter sleeve for American girl
I voted Flutter sleeve for 18" doll, This is the only size doll I have
Thank you! They are all adorable. I don’t have a Gotz doll but now I want one!
I would love to see more patterns for 14-14.5 inch dolls.
Thank you, Helen! I’d love any of these choices. Voted for the Tunic and Leggings set.
I vote for the tunic and leggings set. It is so adorable. Although I do not have a 19" doll, I agree that with a little adjustment it would fit an 18" doll. They are all very cute patterns. Thank you Helen for the patterns.
Thanks Helen for such an adorable pattern. (Each choice is equally adorable!) I went with the 18" pattern, as I have a 18" AG to use for fitting.
I would totally think that the tunic and leggings will fit American Girl and other 18" dolls. (Maybe with a little adjusting) That one is really cute!
Beautiful pattern choices !!! I vote for the tunic and leggings, such a cute pattern. Thank you for such lovely choices.
Love them all but just have an 18" doll, so the 18" Flutter Sleeve top gets my vote. Thank you for all of the wonderful patterns I have received.
Thank yoou Helen. I love the Tunic and leggings pattern.
These are gorgeous! I voted for the flutter sleeve top for 18” American GIrl doll. I love this pattern! Thank you for your generosity!
Hi Helen! Thank you for sharing your talents with us!! I chose the 18" flutter sleeve as I have a couple of 18" dolls already. I also have a good stash of fabrics to chose from to make this cute design! Thanks again!!! ☘☘☘
Thank you Helen, for the lovely pattern choices! My vote is for the 18 inch doll flutter-sleeve pattern.
I voted for the Tunic & Leggings even though I don’t own that size doll. I’m sure I can alter it to fit my dolls and it’s nice for doll owners that own other dolls have a chance to win. Thanks to all for this great pattern giveaway.
Helen thanks so much for allowing us to have one of your gorgeous patterns for the Freebie Friday this week. Sure do wish I had a Gotz doll. I almost voted for the tunic and leggings pattern anyway………….and tried to make it fit. Thanks again!
They are all such fun little outfits. I voted for the Tunic & Leggings… I don’t have that size doll, but I thought I’d give a vote to that one… perhaps it can be altered to fit an 18 inch Our Generation doll? Thank you for everything!
Thank you for the free pattern this week! Sometime I sew for my niece’s 18" dolls, but we don’t have any dolls this size yet. I’ll vote for the tunic and leggings with hopes that it wins for all those with a 19" doll! All the patterns are really cute!
Thank you for the free pattern this week! Sometime I see for my niece’s 18" dolls, but we don’t have any dolls this size yet. I’ll vote for the tunic and leggings with hopes that it wins for all those with a 19" doll! All the patterns are really cute!
I have to go with the 18" Flutter Sleeve, as I don’t do the other sizes….but love the patterns…wish they were 18".
Your patterns are so adorable! I love them all, especially the tunic and leggings set!
They are so pretty! Though Ido not own a 19’’ doll I choose the Tunic and Leggings pattern. I would like that also another brand doll owners get their FreebieFriday pattern.
Thanks so much Helen for the lovely selection of patterns to choose from. I am fortunate to have a Gotz Hannah doll, and I voted for the tunic and leggings pattern, although I have lots of AG dolls too so I’d be happy with any of the patterns that wins.
Joan
I feel that the tunic and leggings pattern is the most adaptable.
I voted for the Flutter Sleeve Top for the 18" doll as I only have Maplelea dolls, they are similar to AG. Although it’s nice to offer other sized doll patterns, putting an 18" with it almost defeats the purpose as most people have the 18" ones and that always seems to be picked, leaving the ones with other sized dolls without free patterns. I would not object to having others the opportunity to acquire some free patterns too. (just not every week:-))
18" doll= 18" pattern, HOWEVER , the other patterns are so cute!! Thanks for sharing your patterns.
Thanks for your generosity, Helen. The patterns are ALL adorable. I really, really like the tunic and leggings….but, alas, I do not have that doll type nor know anyone who does. So, my vote will go for the flutter top for the AG dolls. Thanks, again!
Love the flutter sleeve top for AG girls. Thank you so much for offering of your patterns they are so cute!
Joy, I love all your designs! Bit, I only have American girl dolls, so that is the pattern that got my vote
Love the top and leggings but only have an 18" doll so it got my vote. Great patterns!
I loved the tunic and legging pattern but had to vote for the top for the 18" doll as I don’t have that size. What a lovely talent you have. Thanks for sharing.
My vote is for the Flutter Top for 18 AG dolls. Thank you so much for all the Freebie Fridays and sharing your patterns with all of us! Every Friday is like Christmas, thanks to your generosity!
All cute patterns. I do not have a Gotz doll so the AG one got my vote.
Thank you Helen and I love all your designs
The tunic and leggings is such a sweet outfit, it got my vote!!
Cute patterns! My vote was for the 18 in doll flutter sleeve top! Thanks
What lovely tops! Thank you, Helen. My vote goes to the 18" AG doll pattern. Looking forward to making this one.
Love to hear people’s ’how I began" stories
They are ALL really nice. But I choose the flutter sleeve for 18” dolls, since my granddaughter’s have this doll size.
Thanks for sharing your pattern.
