Sew Maddie

What a beautiful book, I have made Maddie doll and am really looking forward to sewing more of her lovely clothes. Easy to follow instructions and I’m thrilled with the results.

Another fabulous book from Debbie Shore, full of patterns, hints and tips on how to make the adorable Maddie and her dog. Lovely that the full size pattern pieces for the doll and clothes are included in the back of the book. Instructions are clear and well illustrated so can’t wait to get started.

Inspired by the Half Yard Sewing Club’s heirloom rag doll, designer Debbie Shore’s striking book centres around the marvellous Maddie. Standing at 66cm tall, this chic dolly comes with a variety of seasonal wardrobe options, including dresses, tops, jeans and shoes. There’s even handy step-by-step photos and helpful tips and tricks for your convenience. Plus, don’t forget to make her cuddly dog Mo! Why not make a sweet Maddie doll for your friends or family.

Make a 66cm (26 in) tall Maddie doll, her fun wardrobe and dog Mo. There are clear instructions, step-by-step photos, handy techniques and tips. All items have full-size patterns on template sheets and there are multiple pattern variations, so you can tailor the garments to suit.
