“The perfect addition to your collection if you have a child or know anyone who has a child with a love of 18-inch dolls . . . Patty’s book is full of colored images, detailed instructions, and creative projects that fit the needs of every 18-inch doll across the globe. If you are familiar with Modkid patterns, these will not disappoint in the clarity and style you have come to expect.
