Pattern Love!

This weekend I finally finished off a little purple pup for my niece, using a pattern from the Softies book I loaned to her and her sister a while ago, and it made me remember how truly easy it is to make something when someone else has gone to the trouble of making up a pattern for you to follow! I only had the pattern pieces, but having made a couple in the past I was able to figure out my own instructions-- but yikes, it was nice! So nice in fact that I popped over to the Wee Wonderfuls website and bought this great PDF pattern. I have a whole bunch of birthdays coming up, so I'm thinking they'd be excellent gifts-- I'm pretty excited to make dolls with woolen hair as I've never done that before.

OHHHH! This is cute! I have a birthday coming up soon, and wanted to make a doll. Are they advanced, or pretty easy? I am still an advanced beginner. I may have to buy these if they are pretty simple over all.
