A lovely African or African American Barbie with light brown eyes and a chocolate complexion stands before a turquoise blue watery colored swatch of fabric. Her purple clothes sharply contrast against the background turquoise blue color. She stands in high heel purple plastic shoes with her feet spread slightly apart. She wears a medium purple cotton pair of elastic waist ankle pants and a matching purple cotton tank top with cotton straps. The tank top has darts.

The photograph shows a Tonner doll with dark makeup and wavy auburn hair wearing handmade pajamas: a felt sleeveless shirt with front darts and a pair of elastic waist pajama pants that are cut short at the shin. The shirt is made of solid white craft felt and has tiny buttons down the front (for aesthetic value more than functionality). It also has an embroidery edge along the sleeve and collar with a simple whipstitch. The pajama pants are made of blue cotton fabric decorated with tiny anchors and sailboats.

I now know that the cost of the class depends upon how many videos I make. Each video is considered a lesson, in and of itself, so if I create 10 videos, that’s 10 lessons.

The pricing scale seems to be related to the number of videos I provide for my class. So to keep the price down, I’m going to limit how many videos I make, for my future courses.

My current class, “How to Alter Doll Clothes Patterns” offers 50 videos, which translated as $50 for the whole course — well, really $49.99. That’s about a dollar per lesson.

But the “How to Alter Doll Clothes Patterns” course offers so much! In this class, I show you how to alter shirt patterns, pants and shorts patterns, skirts, and even dresses. That’s a lot of stuff! I suppose that’s why it ended up costing almost $50 instead of the $25 I was shooting for.

In the next round of classes, I’ll try to limit the number of lessons to 25 or less, so it will be more affordable for those of you on a really tight budget.

If there’s a lesson you’d like me to add to the next survey, please leave a comment below. Also, if you have comments to add about the survey options, don’t hesitate to type those into the comment section also. I really want to teach topics that truly interest all of you!

Hi, Chelly
I voted for pants because I am really into boy dolls now and find most patterns are for 18″ dolls only.

I really enjoyed your class but haven’t left a review yet because I had planned on going back and re-doing all of it even though I have most of the patterns required for the hands-on part.

My real goal is to be able to take an existing pattern or picture & know what to do to get that for the particular doll I am working with. Example: I have just purchased all 3 boy Mini-pals from Maru & Friends & finding it quite difficult to find patterns since most 13″ dolls are girls.

If Creative Spark is asking for another class, they must deem you a successful creator. May the Lord continue to bless you in your endeavor going forward.

  Oh! I’m so glad you enjoyed my class! Please do take the time to leave a review. This helps other people to decide whether or not to sign up.
  
  I’m so flattered that you’re going to go back to the class and re-do the whole thing! I really tried to make it both educational and FUN! If you’re going back for more, that must mean it managed to hit both of those targets.
