The image shows a typical fashion doll like Barbie wearing a handmade skirt of holiday fabric and a blouse made of solid color yellow fabric. The skirt appears to be made of shamrock print cotton fabric, but there are tiny yellow shamrocks in the print, which matches the yellow of her blouse. The logo reminds us to go to ChellyWood.com for free printable PDF sewing patterns to make our 4th of July or other holiday outfits for doll clothes.

Within the square frame of a quilted image, we see a photo of a Made to Move Barbie wearing a handmade kilt-style wrap around skirt, made of green plaid fabric, side-by-side with the image from the cover of Simplicity pattern 8281 from 1977. The real doll and the drawn image from the pattern are standing in identical poses, with feet spread slightly apart and hands at their sides. Both wear a tee shirt with the wrap skirts.

On a turquoise blue linen background, we see the words "Free Patterns," accompanying a photo of a Rainbow High Sheryl doll from MGM. The doll wears a handmade red, green, white, and black plaid dress with red ribbon straps. The dress's skirt is almost long enough to cover the doll's knees, but not quite. The doll's light brown eyes glisten as if wet. Her golden locks float around her shoulders and down her back. In the left corner of the turquoise blue linen frame, we see the logo for Chelly Wood dot com.
