Amy Farrah Fowler Pattern!

Below is the pattern for my Amy Farrah Fowler Doll! Please keep in mind I do not write my patterns in normal rounds, I just write down the stitches and the process I go through to make the doll. I prefer to count stitches. 

If you have any questions please send me an email. I have closed the comments on this post because I do not always get notifications so it is quicker to email me directly should you have any questions. Happy Crocheting!

Assembly

Now you will stuff her legs firmly, and sew the soles of her feet on. Sew on the shirt collar, and the front seam on shirt. Sew the arms onto her cardigan. Now add her hair and embroider on her face. Sew on her ears and nose. And I made her a small tiara using craft wire and glass beads.

Please note I started making my dolls a bit larger they are about 15 inches long. So this Amy doll may be bigger than my Sheldon Pattern. I did not use my Sheldon Pattern when I made my recent set of Shamy Dolls. If you find she is working up to large you can drop a hook size.

Feel free to sell finished items that you make using my patterns. But please do not distribute my patterns without my permission. If you have any questions please feel free to email me at amidorablecrochet@gmail.com

Here is another photo of his doll while he was on his long journey! You can see more about this story a few posts down. Thank you so much for the photo Tiffany :)

And I forgot to share this with you guys! I know it's nerdy of me....but I had to pick up a copy of our local paper here that ran an article about Jim Parsons with his little AmiSheldon! And I have the best Husband ever because he also grabbed me a copy of the PG Paper! I had to share a photo of the PG Paper because I LOVE the title of the article :)

 

Happy Bellzinga!!

I hope everyone is having a Merry Christmas, and that you get to spend time with your family and friends!

I got a wonderful surprise in my email this morning. Recently I gave a Sheldon Doll that was in my stash to a lovely woman for her Husband, who is a HUGE Big Bang Theory Fan  for Christmas! Her Husband is currently serving overseas....and he is such a huge fan of Sheldon and the show that she wanted to send him his own little mini Sheldon! I am so happy that he got it just in time for Christmas!

Here is a photo of his little Sheldon all ready for his long journey overseas! Thank you so much for the photo Tiffany, I love it!

Sheldon Cooper Fever!

If you have stopped by my blog or facebook page lately you will have noticed the flurry of excitement about Jim Parsons! I have been trying to explain how truly over the moon I am about Jim Parsons, and how he was kind enough to reply to me about his mini Sheldon Doll I sent him ...but I can't find the right words, it means so much to me! The photo of Jim holding his doll is a wonderful gift I will treasure. And I was literally in tears when I saw Jim holding his mini Sheldon Doll on Conan.....then when he said my name I lost it! To be honest everyone that was watching it with me was a little teary eyed :)

Well, since last week  I have received emails from other wonderful Jim Parsons and Sheldon Fans that are really excited about it! Some people have even been sending me cool screen shots too, here are a few cute ones :)

 

I am truly touched by Jim's reply and other people are really excited and touched by it as well! It has even gotten some people wanting to learn how to crochet so  they can make their own mini Sheldon Doll! I think there are going to be quite a few Sheldon Dolls under peoples Christmas trees this year! Here is a little Sheldon doll that was emailed to me recently that was created by Anna using my Sheldon Doll Pattern! 

You can visit Anna over at Tip Toppers Hats. I love how he turned out, thank you for the photo Anna!

I have also had some people asking if I will be making the rest of the cast from The Big Bang Theory....and yes I am for my personal collection. I have a small list of orders to finish up first then I will be making the entire cast next year ...and a few surprises to go along with them too including a giveaway for a Sheldon Doll! Next on my list from the cast is Howard! I just have to decide which colorful outfit I will make him wear!
