SUMMARY- This 16" doll and her wardrobe is based on an original design by Dorothy Wendell Heizer which appeared in "Modern Priscilla"(Nov. 1927) - I checked and I do not have this issue yet. I've put a note with the issue so that when I do acquire it, I can revisit this review and add a scan of the original doll. Oh my goodness, I love this doll and want to make it Immediately. I love everything about it. You get the usual well-marked patterns and beautiful doll. Susan's instructions are easy to follow - if you already know what you're doing. If not, you may need some help.

You can still get Susan's books directly at www.susansirkis.com . They are well worth the investment if you like dressing your dollies in vintage styles!
