I decided to get myself a 14.5" doll. She is a Glitter Girl by Battat, 2017 first issue that was sold at TARGET. Was able to get her at a bottomed out price on AMAZON WAREHOUSE. If you watch, there are some bargains to be had there! She has a cute dress, and in the picture you can't see the real color. In the same room with it, it is a glaring neon pink. I am going to make her something else very soon because that pink really is too much. It looks so nice in the picture. :) Her name is Elula, which is a name I had no idea existed. I am renaming her Ursula. She resembles a good friend I had in childhood whose name was Ursula. So then the journey of getting patterns begins. I have already gotten her some patterns, and then I thought maybe I could reduce the 18" doll patterns down to size as well - and I think 71-74% is the range to print them out at to fit, but I will be trying this over time. As usual, I am slow, so it will be awhile.
She is so much prettier in person than in the photos at AMAZON. I have not taken her hair out of the plastic ties yet, but they are just to keep the hair nice in transit, and are not anything one can keep. More will follow - meanwhile I am working, STILL, on my student nurse outfit for the 18" dolls.
