On a square of turquoise blue linen fabric, we see the words "free patterns" alongside the ChellyWood.com logo. To the right of these is a photo of a Curvy Barbie (trademarked by Mattel) wearing the following handmade doll clothes: a Renaissance hat with a feather in it, a long-sleeved tunic with puffy sleeves, a pair of leggings, a pair of leather lace-up boots, and a jacket with many gathers. The doll clothes remind us of Alexander (or Alexandre) Dumas.

Here we see a Spin Master Liv doll sitting in a wicker chair, in a purple room. She's reaching out to a tray of tea with a teapot, which rests on a white wicker table. In her lap is a tiny china plate of pink cake. Her dress has orange sleeves and white cuffs but the largest part of the dress, including the bodice and skirt, are made of black fabric decorated with tiny white and orange candy corns. The skirt's hem is embellished with orange ribbon and white 1/8 inch rickrack trim.
