Introducing you know who! My last pattern for 2121, and I call the pattern 'Graduate', because its useful to have a graduation doll for when the occasion demands it, and we are all in our second year and hope to graduate through Covid 19 times.
This doll came about because one of my dollmakers thought I could design it so she could make it for her grandson! So she made it all the while pushing me for more bits to add. Once I got up to the Gown, I gave up and decided if I do this much I should write it up. So I have just finished writing it in time for Christmas! Now she's on to Nana Santa for goodness sake!
Well, these are the things that motivate a pattern designer and dollmaker. We do things because someone wants them, or we wouldn't bother.
I have to say I quite enjoyed the process of this one, who shall be nameless, and he is now in my Etsy Shop and will be in your favourite pattern sellers this Christmas!
