Well, I spoke too soon about making good progress with the summer outfits as I seem to be having a prolonged period of not being able to settle down for a day's sewing, mainly due to the demands of my proper job - teaching! Although I am only part-time these days, I seem to be spending a good proportion of my day either in school or preparing lessons at home just lately, but that's mainly down to working one-to-one with a few pupils prior to their SATs tests, which are taking place this week. Once this week is over, I'm hoping to get the chance to come up for air and sort out the pile of 'bottoms' that I've made, which have no tops!

IMPORTANT: Please see new postage rates on my Info page. I regret that I have had to increase postal charges owing to a change to the amount of compensation applied to items sent by standard Royal Mail First Class (UK) or Airmail, which has been reduced to £20 from £46.  In order to provide adequate cover, orders will be sent out using First Class 'Signed For' (UK) or Airsure (overseas) in future.

Ollie does have his coat of now, and is even wearing a toddler-sized t-shirt, although he has refused to have his photo taken in the sunhat I spent ages searching for, protesting that it looks like a pea on a drum - but then it wasn't made for him in the first place, and I just got it out for reference to make a bigger pattern. Mind you, with temperatures of 9°C today, he's also asking why he needs a sunhat!

May I welcome you to the Dollydoodles website, where you will find a variety of outfits which have been specially made for Sasha and Gregor dolls.

Although some of the Sasha dolls are around fifty years old, my designs are influenced by what young children are wearing today. Dollydoodles outfits are unique as they are made from my own patterns, from scratch, and I try out and change each new design until it is a perfect fit. I work predominantly with cotton jersey fabrics. All fabrics are new and seams are neatened with matching thread, although there are exceptions as sometimes, stretch fabrics are best left alone as they don't fray and neatening will distort the outfit. Dollydoodles is just me, with my trusty sewing machine, so my output is limited and for this reason, I cannot undertake commissions or special orders. All items bear a Dollydoodles label and can only be bought new from this website.

I have divided Dollydoodles outfits into two ranges - the Special Editions and the Basics - so please make sure you look at both pages! Items in the Basics range can usually be repeated, as long as I can buy similar fabric, but the Special Editions are made from fabrics of which I have a limited, unrepeatable supply. I have chosen to call them 'Special' editions rather that 'Limited' because it is not easy to predict how many items I can make out of a piece of fabric - I often make two or three different outfits from a special piece of fabric, and prefer not to cut it all out at once. I also use an embroidery machine to enhance some of the outfits in the 'Special Editions' range.

Please remember that Dollydoodles clothing for Sashas and Gregors is made with adult collectors in mind and may contain parts which make them unsuitable playthings for young children.

Dollydoodles clothing can only be purchased new from this website.           I don't sell anywhere else.

From time to time, Dollydoodles outfits are sold on, and I have noticed a few just lately being passed off as 'Dollydoodles', which I don't recognise, particularly t-shirts! My reputation for well-made oufits for Sasha and Gregor is obviously very important to me, so I would like to point out that if an item of Sasha or Gregor clothing does not have my label in it (or is not part of a set which has a label), then it is not made by me. The only items which do not carry a Dollydoodles label are the Beanie Hats.
