The image shows a Bratz doll wearing a pretty green plaid dress with short puffy sleeves and solid green cuffs. The fabric pattern includes shamrocks among the plaid squares. This Bratz doll seems to be standing in an art museum, which displays a Monet garden-themed painting, a bust of Bach, a sculpted harlequin mask, and a famous painting of Romeo and Juliet in the museum diorama. The watermark reminds you that you can find the free printable sewing patterns and free tutorial videos for making this doll dress at ChellyWood.com
