Spring Time Doll, Bunny & Chick Vase Doll Free Crochet Patterns

 This cute little girl is ready for spring! She's made from one of those air freshener doll you see at most craft stores that you don't know what to do with any more. Pattern here.
 She sits atop a clear vase that I have filled with candy. There is even one hiding in her basket!
 Now she has turned in a little White Bunny. Pattern here.
 Her little hat even has a bunny head and ears on it.
 Now she is a chick. Would she look good in several pastel colors all lining a shelf or table?
Fabric paints are what I used to give detail to her hat. Her pattern can be found here

6-inch Blue Snow Angel Free Crochet Pattern from Donna's Crochet Designs

 I call her Blue Snow Angel and the free pattern is here. She is 6-inches tall.
 I used size 10 crochet threads, just the odds and ends I had on hand. It really doesn't take much to make her.
 Here wings are sewn to her jacket.
I made her using doll head and hands you can get at most craft stores. Her arms are glued into the bottom of the blue sleeve, then the mixed blue sleeve is added and sewn to the doll.

She would look good done in different colors and put on a wreath or the tree. She would also make a good teacher gift or decoration for a present.
Enjoy!

Free Sequin Gown & Cape Crochet Pattern

This time my free pattern is for a 12-inch fashion doll.

Her gown features a sequined bodice.

Her matching cape has a sequined collar.

As you can see the set was made using size 10 crochet thread.  The addition of the sequins make an otherwise simple dress & cape into something spectacular.

To work with sequins you must thread them onto your crochet thread.  Then before you finish a stitch that requires a sequin you first slide the sequin as close to the hook as you can, yo and finish your stitch!
Enjoy!

I've always loved the look of these dolls, the big heads and big eyes, plus they can stand on their own. I just never liked what the manufacturer put on them. I guess it is the old lady in me. Dolls just should be cute!
