Mary was feeling tired and fat and fifty when she discovered that Victoria's Secret sold intimate apparel in size 2X. Smiling to herself, she planned a birthday party for her honey. She baked a chocolate cake and served it with champagne, added some naughty videos, and her own special gift wrap. . . This is the pattern for the award winning doll that's fun for your own secret fantasy, and also just the thing to get "him" interested in dolls. Complete instruction book with full-size, cut-out patterns. Blue Ribbon, Artist's Dolls Over 10 Inches, UFDC National Convention, 1994. First Place, Dimensions in Dollmaking, San Diego, 1994.

You Have a Choice of Faces

• The alternate face has traced features that can be colored with colored pencils, painted, or embroidered. It is then defined with very little needle modeling.

You Have a Choice of Hands

• o Open finger hand with wired fingers.
• o Open finger hand with stuffed fingers.
• o Open finger hand with separate thumb.

Optional Armature

• The optional, full-body armature makes the doll free standing and allows her to hold the cake and grip the champagne bottle.
