A message from Rachel: “From February 2021 to December 2021, Tamara Casey of Designs by Jude has collaborated with the Virtual Doll Convention to create a monthly pattern for Club Grace, a virtual doll club started by VDC for the Grace Marie Fitzpatrick doll designed by Robert Tonner. The designs each month ranged from casuals, to fancy, to flirty, and each one was expertly designed and offered to the members of Club Grace. Along with the patterns. Tamara also created videos for the members to learn how to make the garment.
The creativity of the members and the community involved when sharing their work was one of the highlights of my year. I loved seeing all of the members take these patterns and run with their own colors and styles, with Tamara’s pattern as the seed to start.
Thank you, Tamara Casey, for your hard work this year. You have been a driving force for so many to learn, grow, and enjoy their sewing. We are excited for 2022 and beyond!”
Tamara Casey of Designs by Jude is a sponsor of Virtual Doll Convention’s Club Grace which is a monthly doll club complete with a clothing delivery subscription, and a monthly digital component that features a fantastic new pattern by Tamara.
