Hello friends, this is Jennifer Long from, Bee Sew Inspired, fabric designer with Riley Blake Designs and a doll and quilt pattern designer.

Do you share our love for Fairytales and magical, whimsical stories to encourage little ones to be creative and challenge their imaginations?! Who is more imaginative with her dreams than Alice? In her dreams she created the most magical place of all! Here is our take on Alice. We hope you love her as much as we do!

Her hair style is full of embroidery detail with a headband applique and pigtails. Isn’t she just so sweet?!

The Alice Doll Pattern is available in both in both the Sewing pattern version and the Machine Embroidery pattern versions. Patterns include PDF templates for (3) sizes of doll in the sewing pattern and machine embroidery files for (3) hoopings in (3) sizes for the machine embroidery pattern.

 

Alice Doll has a sweet apron, you can choose to make it with a plain print and add hand or machine embroidery or you can use a printed fabric and fussy cut to make your Alice doll unique.

There are so many details to discover as you sew up this Alice doll like the collar on her dress and the 3/4 length sleeves. We can’t wait to see your take on this new Bee Sew Inspired Doll pattern!

Hi Friends! I am so happy you are here. My name is Jennifer Long, and I am a Riley Blake Designs Fabric Designer, Quilt & Doll Pattern Writer, Machine Embroidery Digitizer, and online educator. I am also the founder of the Sew A Story Pattern Club and the Modern Rag Doll Membership. I am married and a mom to (4) pre-teens / teens and live on a little hobby farm in rural Prairie Canada. I grew up training to be a professional ballet dancer, and later studied Early Childhood Education. I taught ballet and ran my own dance studio all the while sewing and designing costumes for myself and many of my colleagues and students. I am passionate about all things FABRIC, imagination and design and am so blessed I can share this passion with others. This journey has inspired me to make a positive difference by designing dolls and quilt patterns and fabric for others to be EMPOWERED to sew themselves! I have designed dolls and quilts for individuals, organizations, companies, designers, authors of children’s books, and international companies for mass production. What I LOVE the most about creativity is finding INSPIRATION everywhere and, in turn, INSPIRING others to do the same! Thank you for joining me on this creative journey.
