This book was definitely worth the price and more! You get 165 different patterns! If this book does not inspire the dollmaker-crafter,then I don't know what to say. The instructions were wonderful with the cute illustrations! Even the novice would understand and create these dolls,no problem. So go ahead and get this book, you won't be disappointed!!

The patterns and ideas in this book are adorable. The instructions and patterns (full size patterns) are clear and easy to understand. You'll love it!

This was the first Japanese craft book I ever owned (I got it for my 14th birthday - I'm now 27), and given the recent popularity of Japanese crafts, I'm surprised that it's not still in print. "Lovable Mini-Dolls" provides patterns for making 165 little (about 3 - 4 inch) felt dolls, including costumed dolls (a pirate, a soldier, a princess, a king, etc), insects, birds, fish, zoo animals and story book characters. Most of these dolls are very simple to make, particularly the animals (I can guarantee that they are easy enough for a 14 year old with minimal sewing skills to make) and colour pictures of the dolls are provided throughout. People who like this book should also consider buying "The Cute Book", which is the closest book to this one, which is currently in print.
