Question : i am looking for patterns for 15'fashion dolls.some of the dolls are Deidre , Caroline, Christine and others.?
i am looking for patterns for 15'fashion dolls.some of the dolls are Deidre , Caroline, Christine and others.?

Answer:
McCall's usually has one or two sewing patterns in their catalogue which can also be viewed on line on their website, for that size of doll, or check Ebay. Over the years I have seen all kinds listed on Ebay. You just have to check regularly until you find what you are looking for.

Question : Can you resize a regular sewing pattern for 11 1/2 inch fashion dolls?
I have purchased some regular clothing patterns(for an adult woman), but I'd like to resize the pattern for Barbie dolls and the like.I have seven dolls, and I'd like to make custom outfits for them rather than buying doll clothes.While I also have an 11 1/2 doll clothes pattern set, I had really liked the styles in the "real" clothes patterns.Please advise. Thanks.ACSound

Answer:
You could try, but I am afraid it will be time consuming and you may not get the desired result. If your heart is set on it you might try reducing just one piece to see how it goes. You can visit any copy store and use the reduce function on the machine. You will have to reduce it a lot to make it small enough for the doll.If that does not work you can buy doll patterns athttp://www.sewfunpatterns.com

Question : Do retailers sell the old Fashion Fever Barbie dolls and clothes?
The new Fashion Fever Barbie dolls come in the boxes and they have bendable arms..and I think the old ones are way better, and I was wondering if they sell them in stores. I'm not looking for anything on eBay or stuff like that, I'm looking for in stores. Also, do they sell the old clothes? The new dolls have smaller bodies, so the new clothes are also smaller, and they don't fit the old Barbies as well. Are there any old generation Barbies for sale in stores?

Answer:
I know that you said you are looking for retail stores, but I just have to think you are going to severely limit yourself if you do not include online resources.Yes, ebay.And the Barbie collectors sites.http://www.barbiecollector.com/shop/dept.aspx?deptid=2&shelfid=02&view=allhttp://www.dolls4pla y.com/http://www.dreamhousedolls.com/Good luck!

Question : reborn dolls and fashion doll repaints getting customers and your name known?
What is the average time of getting customers and getting your name known for repainting fashion dolls and reborning baby dolls? your honest opinions please

Answer:
All you have to do is go on Ebay or launch a website. A website is cheaper but a little slower at first. Be prepared with lots of customer testimonials and top notch photos. If you have both of those, you'll be known in 3 months. If you don't have testimonials yet, show your dolls to firends and ask them to write comments about them. Use their comments as testimonials. Here is an example of what testimonials might look like: http://www.reborn-baby.com/reborn-testimonials.html.

Question : Book about German Fashion Dolls from the 1950's?
Bild Lilli Fashions & Dolls

Answer:
Reinhard Beuthien was ordered to make a "filler" to conceal a blank space in the Bild-Zeitung of June 24, 1952. He drew a cute baby, but his boss didn't like it. So he kept the face, added a ponytail and a curvy woman's body and called his creation "Lilli". She sat in a fortune-teller's tent asking: "Can't you tell me the name and address of this rich and handsome man?" The cartoon was an immediate success so Beuthien had to draw new ones each day.Lilli was post-war, sassy and ambitious and had no reservations talking about sex. As she had her own job she earned her own money as a secretary but wasn't above hanging out with rich men ("I could do without balding old men but my budget couldn't!"). The cartoon always consisted of a picture of Lilli talking to girlfriends, boyfriends, her boss ("As you were angry when I was late this morning I will leave the office at five p.m. sharp!"). The quips underneath the cartoons handled topics ranging from fashion (to a policeman who told her that two-piece-swimsuits are banned: "Which piece do you want me to take off?"), politics ("Of course I'm interested in politics; no one should ignore the way some politicians dress!") and even the beauty of nature ("The sunrise is so beautiful that I always stay late at the nightclub to see it!"). The last Lilli cartoon appeared on January 5, 1961.
