I got Blossom with the intention of making her for my great niece and granddaughter. Amelia (GN) got hers, and Kinsley (GD) is going to get another kind of sewn doll from a pattern I made for my daughter. She's adorable, but much smaller than I had thought. I have arthritis, and there was a lot of "hands on" stuff to do. Some day I might try to enlarge all the pieces for a bigger than 5x7 hoop.
Monika gives very detailed instructions with lots of pictures. Do print them out for reference, it's easier. She has the sweetest doll face.
