On a background of purple cotton fabric that has tiny white polka dots, we see the words "free pattern" and the Chelly Wood dot com logo beside a photo of Rainbow High "Sheryl" doll wearing a handmade dress that's reminiscent of a child's dress from the Victorian era. The dress has short sleeves, a mid-calf-length full skirt, and a cropped bodice. It's made of pastel green cotton fabric with tiny white polka dots.

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.
