There have been so many adorable dolls made by the Studio Seren community these past couple of months! Seeing the unique dolls you create using my animal doll sewing patterns brings me so much joy. Each doll has its own special charm, from the fabrics you choose to the little details that make them distinctly yours
I share your wonderful photos in my Instagram stories, storing them in highlight folders on my Instagram page. It's become a fantastic source of inspiration and a way to showcase the incredible work of our community
At the end of each month, my daughter Seren has the fun task of selecting some of her favourite photos to feature on my website. She chooses one lucky person as her Maker of the Month and they receive a free sewing pattern of their choice

Seren adored Olwen's cat and chose her as Maker of the Month for October. She said that her face was really cute and she loved the outfit she was wearing
