If you were a girl in the late 1960s and early 1970s, these accessories were must-haves. Now your doll can wear them, too!
The Flossie Potter '60s & '70s ACCESSORIES pdf pattern shows you how to make WATER BUFFALO SANDALS (extremely flat leather sandals with a toe loop), four styles of LEATHER HAIR CLASPS (large rectangle to hold all of your doll's hair, small rectangle to hold some hair, elliptical shape, and pigtail holders that lace up), and a BRAIDED BELT (which can be made with or without bead decoration). And, if you're like me, you'll be happy to know that there is NO GLUING involved!
This PDF pattern has 15 pages of step-by-step instructions with full-color photos, 1 page of full-size pattern pieces, and 4 pages of summary instructions (to save on printer ink!).
Pair the accessories with these other Flossie Potter '60s - '70s items: HIP-HUGGER BELL BOTTOMS, WOODSTOCK PEASANT TOP, FAVORITE FRINGED VEST, and FLOWER CHILD MAXI DRESS.
