What was your inspiration?
I received a request for an autumn themed doll pattern. I wanted the doll to have detail, but not be so complex that beginning to intermediate dollmakers couldn't complete her.
What are you most proud of?
That she was published, and is currently one of my most requested patterns. I've used this pattern for other dolls (including the Hoffman Challenge, and was awarded second place). I'm also really thrilled when people who have used my pattern send me photos of their completed dolls.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Be comfortable with your sewing machine. Don't rush through the project, and don't be intimidated by the face details.
