My hope is that Evangeline will be another heirloom piece. I learned to use the sewing machine through creating clothing for my Felicity doll (thanks, Grandmother!) With this doll I'd like to practice pattern-making by playing with the construction of clothes and the affordances and limitations different fabrics offer. I can then transfer that knowledge into constructing and tailoring human clothing! A few more details on Evangeline's construction on http://mem-hey.blogspot.com
