""Thoroughly needlecrafter friendly…profusely illustrated instructions, and featuring full color photos of finished dolls."" —Midwest Book Review ""There are larger and smaller instructions and basic patterns that you adapt, along with mochi versions (the kind of little dolls that lie flat). All are quite cute, easy to make, and with inexpensive materials. This is a wonderful way for all of us to be creative and have a cute little doll as a keepsake!"" —KidsR.Us
