Lots of lovely illustrations with loads of outfits to make and enjoy. Book contains plenty of clear instructions, patterns and illustrations. My daughter has already started making a dress and was able to do this quite quickly. There's  some outfits for Ken too.


Customer Review

This book is invaluable if you have a little someone wanting a new wardrobe for their Ken or Barbie. It has a very good selection of clothing. I liked that the patterns are actual size, so it's just a matter of tracing them from the book. Easy to follow instructions. Very useful flaps on front and back covers to help keep your place in the book. I'd thoroughly recommend this book.


Customer Review

I love this book. It is quite addictive. The patterns are easier than I thought they would be. I am a granny but I could see the book being useful for a young teen who wants to be a designer. Bonus that there are patterns for Ken too. Garments can therefore be gender neutral.

A nice mix of fun and formal outfits, all adaptable to four different doll body shapes. Easy to follow patterns, that can make use of small scraps and leftover fabric so there is very little cost.
