Meet Emily! 

She's spunky and fun and loves to play outside. And she loves the freckles she gets from playing outside. :-)

She doesn't like it when her hair gets in her face so she always wears it in braids. Last year even her bangs were too much so she cut them off completely - right at the roots! She loved it, but her Mom didn't - so now she's grown them out again. :-) 

Her favorite books are the Ramona Quimby series and her favorite food is a baked potato with lots of butter. Yum!

Emily is one of The Dress Up Bunch and can share clothes with everyone else in the group. Fun! She has weighted hands and feet for excellent flop, arms and legs that will go in any direction for great play and easy dressability, and plenty of cuteness! She's also very easy to make. 😁

Please note - this pattern is just for the doll. None of the clothes you see in the photos are included, but you can find a HUGE wardrobe of clothing and accessory patterns here. These dolls are better dressed than I am!

This is exclusively available as a PDF pattern, delivered instantly and ready to print onto letter-size paper. No shipping costs and no waiting!

You can’t go wrong with pattern! I have enjoyed the cat pattern and wanted to try Spot. It has been a big hit children and some adults. Wendy’s patterns do not disappoint!

Loved making PIp

Enjoyed making PIP, I had already made Squeak so Pip was pretty much the same except she is a cat, lol! Recommend making these dress up bunch animals with so many options for clothes. I think my granddaughter will have so much fun playing dress up with them. Also, made the overall set from Wendi for Pip to wear.

Easy to make stuffy Squeak

First stuffy I have ever made but Wendi’s step by step directions and diagrams with a handy tutorial helped me to complete squeak easily. Turned out amazing and I like that she is part of the dress up dolls so I can make many different outfits to change her into.

Endless fun!

A longtime quilter this was my first stuffie for my 3 year old granddaughter.
I found the directions easy to follow and fun. My granddaughter has had so much fun with Lizzie, I have made matching outfits for them both and get frequent requests for new clothes.

Different ears

I love the whole Dress up Bunch. My granddaughters loved the bunny. I decided that the ears were too rounded and short, so I lengthened them and made them pointy.

Lovely dog

I am sewing several dogs from my stash and they become different names

Mary

I just finished stitching up Spot the Dog. The directions were easy to follow. I am pleased with how she turned out. I ordered squeak and a few outfits, which I printed with no problem.

Melissa

This is my third pattern purchase from this artist and I will be coming back for more! Very easy to print and understand. The final product never disappoints.

Myra

Although I have not used yet, I have read the instructions and everything is understandable. That is good. However, did I miss something....mention of dressing the dog with an outfit. The outfit is separate??? I not upset just confused.

Emily of the Dress Up Bunch

Grandmother (me) has been indisposed for the last week so we haven’t started on Emily yet. But granddaughter is wildly excited, we have read the instructions together and I think we can do this fairly easily. Then we have to make that particular blue dress.

Deborah

This pattern was so easy to follow and comes together so quickly. The pieces were big enough to make turning very easy.

Cute a a button

I made Lizzie for my granddaughter, along with her camping outfit. Since my g/d has a special love for sleeping bags (?!), I was just going to just make that, thinking she has many dolls that would be a good fit already. But I decided to make Lizzie & was glad I did. Also glad I reviewed the inserting eye link. I thought I ‘knew it all’ but saw the tip about adding the felt circle and this was very helpful. I did leave the tops of the arms & legs empty, but found I had stuffed the bottoms too much. This meant it was harder to sew than it needed to be and also clothes were a little hard to get on. I even had to open up the shirt seam a bit. When I make Lizzie a friend I’ll make sure to lighten up a bit in this regard. Most importantly, my g/d really loves her Lizzie!
