Get to know Donna (in her own words): "I (and 5 siblings) were orphaned when I was 4 years old. Two of us were adopted by an Aunt and Uncle. The rest went to the orphanage and foster care. With that much trauma in my life, I needed a place to hide, so at that early age, I created my own little world in sewing and designing for my doll. As my sewing skills developed, I began creating clothing for myself and eventually for others as well. I studied commercial art and design in college, and worked in the printing industry for a while. I did custom sewing and alterations for years, but have now come full circle, back to the little world of dolls. I enjoy the creativity of designing and the technical challenge of developing the patterns. I hope to pass on my love for creating to others, through patterns that teach in a way that is easily understandable. (And in case you were wondering… yes, my siblings and I are still in touch and are thankful to see each other when we can.)"

Inquiring Minds Want To Know...
Q: What's your favorite food?
Donna: It has always been spaghetti with meat sauce until I started to try to choose healthier options. I still love spaghetti, but grilled salmon has become a new favorite.
Q: What's your favorite tv show or movie?
Donna: TV show: something like NCIS or Murder, She Wrote. Movie: Finding Normal was a little known, but really good movie. My favorite book is the Bible.
Q: Coffee or Tea?
Donna: Coffee – with cream and sugar.
Q: Where's your favorite place to shop?
Donna: I love to go to thrift stores and consignment shops. It’s like going on a treasure hunt!
Q: What is your dream vacation?
Donna: I’d love to go to some islands... Caribbean or Hawaiian – either or both.
Q: Do you collect anything special?
Donna: I used to collect sheep because I love the symbolism of the Good Shepherd and His sheep. Once other people found out, my flock grew way too big for my “pastures”, so I don’t mention it anymore. Sooo many sheep!
We'd love to hear from you. Leave a comment and tell us - which look is best! And be sure to thank Donna and the Pixie Faire Team for giving away such a cute outfit!

Market Stroll is adorable!
Love the versatility of the dress but Trick or Treat is my favorite
I love Trick or Treat, because it is just the cats meow of outfits. Thank you Donna and Pixie Faire, for the purrfect Halloween outfit.
Meow! Love that trick or treat look. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Donna and the Pixie Faire Team for creating such cute outfits featuring the Convergence Dress. I really like both of them. However, the look I like the best is the Trick or Treat one. I just feel the accessories used to design that outfit go better with the Convergence Dress than the accessories used to design the Market Stroll outfit, especially given the color of the dress and that it really feels like a dress that should be worn by a doll on Halloween. Once again, thanks for creating such adorable outfits featuring the Convergence Dress. And thanks for the fantastic opportunity to win!
How adorable! Both are so cute!
I love the Trick or Treat look.it is really cute

Sweet! I voted for Market Stroll, but your Trick or Treat is awesome, too! Loved the colors you chose—I hadn’t purchased this pattern because it didn’t look like it would be so cute (oh, how wrong we were!). It will go on my list of patterns to get now. Thanks, Donna for such a cute pattern, and thanks Pixie Faire for an awesome giveaway!

Donna, I hear you about the sheep I used to be a shepherd. I was missing them and mentioned how much I missed them. was deluged with sheep coffee cups creamers,salt and pepper shakers an lots of sheep.
Thank you for providing the outfits for the drawing and Pixie Faire for running it.
Pixie faire isn’t letting me vote (it is probably really my computer) if I can i;d pick the cat trick or treater costume .
Thank you Donna and the Pixie Faire Team. Trick or Treat wears it best.
thank you Donna and Pixie Faire for the fun giveaway. I like Market Stroll best.
What a blessing that your life challenges did not destroy your faith and that you and your siblings are still in touch despite being separated during childhood. Your designs are adorable, and your life story is an inspiration to all of us!
As usual, they are both so adorable. I voted for the trick or treat. Thanks for the chance to win!

Market Stroll. I don’t really celebrate Halloween, but love to decorate for fall.
Trick or treat kitty………….so cute!! Thank you for your design and all the things we learn on this site. Love it!!
Oh boy another week of a toss-up choice. They are always sooo cute and very difficult to chose. So my flip of the coin is the Market Stroll.. Thank you for the opportunity!!!!
’Tis the season so (even though both are beautiful), I will choose the trick or Treat outfit. Thanks Donna for telling us your story, and how even after all those things you went through, you are still having that much energy to continue doing your doll patterns. Thanks to the Pixie Faire team
I like Trick or Treat best. Thank You Donna and the pixie Faire team.

Both looks are really charming, its interesting to see how different the same dress can look with different accessories. The trick or treat one won my heart with the cute kitty ears and the charming boots! thanks
Thanks for the ideas and the opportunity. The Market Stroll is a nice look with that pretty hat and sandals. Happy Stitching!
Thank you Donna and Cinnamon! Cute dress. I’m going with Trick or Treat, but they’re both very cute! My heart goes out to you Donna.
Thanks to Donna and the Pixie Faire team. I love both combinations. I pick the Trick or Treat one because Halloween is my favorite holiday. My girls would wear both with pleasure. mWhat fun!
Its hard to choose I love them both, great job!
Love the market stroll look! That took my vote. Thanks for the opportunity !
I love the Market Stroll. Looks so relaxing and casual for a stroll
I love both, but I prefer the Market Stroll…it’s my favorite… Because all my girls like to go shopping for new stuff !!!!
I like them both, but the market stroll is a look that is more useful throughout fall.
Market stroll is adorable
This was a hard one. I liked both. However, I voted for Market Stroll. The deciding factor was the straw hat.
I have to admit I don’t like the boots – they look ready to stomp puddles not walk trick or treat. I think it should have been short boots and black tights.
So I am all for the Starbucks shopper. She is delightful.
Love both but trick or treat with the head band makes a quick convert dress into a costume. Would love for my little friend Jessica.
I think the Trick or Treat costume looks best!! I love the boots and the cat ears headband!! The Convergence dress is a fantastic design and has so many possibilities but can also be made in any color combination! Thank you for sharing Donna!!
Market Stroll! Very cute! Thank you to the pixie faire team and everyone!
