The image shows a 1970s vintage Crissy doll from Ideal Toy Corporation wearing handmade doll clothes on the right side of a text box. The doll is dressed in a yellow square-neck shirt with shoulder-length sleeves that end in lace. The bottom of her shirt is also trimmed in lace. Beneath the lace, we see the elastic waist of her denim capri pants. She wears denim sneakers that match. The text box contains a graphic image of a sewing machine that says "Let's sew" and beneath this the phrase is completed with... ["Let's sew] ... a pair of capris for Crissy." At the bottom of the combined text box and photograph, the URL ChellyWood.com is provided.

This photograph of a Best Friends Club Ink doll appears to be taken indoors at an art museum. The doll stands before a modern art poster with the name "Ruth Stone" inside identical side-by-side cream-colored circles on a blue background. The doll's back is to us, so we can clearly see that her elastic shorts have one working back pocket, and her close-in-back shirt has several tiny buttons running down the back closure area of the short-sleeved shirt. The shorts outfit she models is made of mint green cotton fabric.

The image shows the 18-inch BFC Ink Kaitlin doll wearing handmade shorts with an elastic waistband and a lace-trimmed (and rick rack trimmed) short-sleeved shirt made of the same springtime yellow fabric as the shorts. She wears glittery pink high-top sneakers with the whole ensemble and her hair is pulled up in a pony tail. She's looking closely at a poster on the wall of the diorama in which she stands. The poster advertisement says "Galway Kinnel" and is a retro-style poster for a poetry reading at the University of Arizona Poetry Center. The wording slightly resembles piano keys but instead of white ivory, the lines of the keys are made of oak-like wood. The watermark on this image says you can find free doll clothes patterns and tutorials at Chelly Wood dot com.
