New Crochet Pattern: Ultimate Baking Set

Here is my newest pattern -- the ultimate baking set! It includes everything your little one will need to bake up some goodies. The pattern includes measuring spoons, dry measuring cups, liquid measuing cup, nesting mixing bowls, a rolling pin, a hand mixer, an oven mit, a whisk, a wooden spoon and a spatula. Now that I've designed this pattern, I am going to retire the baking cookies pattern.

Pattern Update: Baby Doll with Diaper Bag

I wasn't 100% happy with the baby doll included in this pattern so I revised the pattern for the doll, added a headband with a bow, changed how the shirt and diaper fasten and redesigned the wipes container so that it is easier to make. If you previously purchased this pattern from my shop and would like the update for free, just send me a Conversation through etsy. If you could please include the date that you purchased the baby doll with diaper bag pattern that would help me find you in my records. Thank you :)
