Lyn Alexander Designs

L-119 Infant's Dress Size 15-17" Baby Doll Year 1907

We carry a line of patterns by Lyn Alexander Designs (formerly Lyn's Doll House Patterns) which we purchased several years ago when Lyn was closing her business.  We have scanned all of the patterns of her line that we carry and have included her written detailed information regarding these patterns.  Every doll maker that I have come in contact with who has used these patterns raves about how they fit and are well designed.
