About Koala & Mila Patterns

Koala & Mila Patterns

We design dolls & their accessories for you to customise & bring to life your own adorable handmade companions.

My name is Nikki & along with Milyah, my daughter & creative graphic design assistant, we create easy-to-follow PDF sewing patterns & full colour photo tutorials so that you can learn the art of doll making & lovingly create your own customised companions to share in your adventures.

We are new to Folksy but we have had a very successful Etsy store for many years. Please feel free to visit us at https://www.etsy.com/shop/koalaandmilapatterns for instant downloads, product reviews, extra product information & videos.

When I was a little girl, I used to read a comic book about a girl whose favourite doll came to life (only when they were alone of course :) but I have never forgotten their adventures & how the doll always wore the most beautiful clothes just like her human playmate. I remember longing for a special doll like that who came to life, who wore clothes just like mine & who would share in everything I did.

Now we're designing the dolls & companions I would love to have played with as a girl complete with their all-season wardrobes full of stylish clothes & accessories I dreamed of my dolls wearing.

We are passionate about sharing the art of doll making with our fully illustrated & detailed step by step guides to take you through the complete journey of creating your own beautiful doll. From cutting the pattern pieces to stuffing & sewing their little bodies closed ready for their first adventure with their new playmate our patterns & full colour tutorials will guide you every step of the way.

Skill level:
Enthusiastic beginner.
All our patterns are beginner friendly & so long as you know your way around a sewing machine you will be making your own lovingly handcrafted dolls in no time.

Every page of the PDF booklets is packed full of high quality, colour photos of each step in the process of creating your very own doll along with their clothes & accessories. We take great care to make sure every step also has clearly written & detailed instructions so that beginner doll makers can succeed in crafting their own customised companion to cherish.

What you will receive:
Upon purchasing a listing, you will receive full instant PDF booklet downloads packed with full colour photos of every single step, clearly written step by step instructions & ready to print full size templates which can be easily printed on a standard home printer. All templates are sized to fit standard A4 sized paper & include a test box so you can be sure your templates are the correct size.
To save both paper & ink you will only need to print the templates & not the whole pattern as the tutorial can be followed on a tablet or computer.

Each one of our dolls & comes with a full wardrobe of beautiful & fully customisable clothes & fun accessories so that they are fully equipped & ready for the exciting adventures their new friend will take them on.
