I just received a pattern for a fairy doll in the mail and she has a number of artist patterns for various dolls, including some gorgeous fairy, angel and fantasy things. She is in Texas and distributes patterns made by artists around the world and there are some really exceptional things here.

There are six different collections but it's worth the time to browse. The Mother Earth and Me patterns in Section 4 look wonderful. A lot of these dolls use needlesculpting and painting for the faces but they sure look realistic.
I bought one by Australian artist Karlene Atkins in section 1 and she also has the option of buying the hand painted faces.
I had no trouble ordering from her, just had to pay $2 extra for being in Canada, and she was very prompt with shipping. I haven't seen dolls as nice as this anywhere for fairy-related subjects.
