5 out of 5 starsI downloaded the Tiny Woman Doll Pattern. The download was quick and easy. I have carefully read through the pattern document. It has very detailed instructions, as well as pictures. There are many tips to guide you through the process of cutting, sewing, types of fabric/yarn to use, and much more. I'm looking forward to creating this doll! Thank you Elissa!

5 out of 5 starsThe pattern downloaded quickly and it was easy to print. I like that most steps have visual aids and they included recommendations for types of fabric.

Frequently asked questions
Where is my file? I didn't receive an email.
Your file(s) are available through your Etsy account and will not be emailed to you directly. You will find your file link in either the confirmation email from Etsy (sent to your account email address), or by going to your account icon at the top right of any Etsy page once you are logged in. From there choose "Purchases". Scroll down to your order from this shop and there will be a link/button to download your order. If you are having issues with downloading please contact me or Etsy.
Why did the price increase or change at checkout?
This is a misunderstanding. This shop is based in Canada and all listings are posted in Canadian dollars which is fairly weak these days. So if a pattern is listed at $10CDN the price will be converted to your local currency when you shop from your country. For example, that $10cdn would show up as about $7.50us when shopping in the USA but when you check out Etsy/Visa/Paypal will show you the currency exchange rate and the higher *Canadian price*. You are not paying anymore than you originally thought!
Can I sell the items I make from one of your patterns?
Are you a home-based maker with a small craft business? Please contact me and let me know your intentions. I will email you my policy on selling items made from my patterns.
Many hours of work and creative development have gone into each and every design and I ask that my guidelines are honoured and respected, from one maker to another. Let’s make it work! :)
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you.

Where are your handmade dolls?
Find them at @doll.art.byelissa. I will be opening a new web shop in 2023. If interested, please sign up for the newsletter for updates: https://www.createjoymakestuff.com. Thank you for your interest.
I can't print. Printing is disabled.
I promise you that printing is not disabled on any of my patterns! But due to an error that I have not been able to work out as of yet, printing is limited to 150dpi (normal, everyday printing), and photo quality printing at 300dpi is not possible. 3500 patterns have been sold and this has only been an issue 2 or 3 times. *I encourage anyone having issues with printing to contact me so we can work through the problem and find a solution.
I recommend only printing the pattern pages, and viewing the instructions on a tablet or PC. Not only do you save on paper and printer ink, you'll see the images as clearly as possible.
How do I download my file(s)? I can't find my files.
