Frequently Asked Questions

What can I enjoy in Dollybird even without reading Japanese?

Plenty. Every issue is built around photography and styling, so the visuals alone make it worth the flip through. When you want the full story behind an interview or a pattern, a translator app like Google Translate rounds out the experience.

What sewing patterns are included in Vol. 33?

Patterns cover Harmonia bloom and more. Keep in mind that patterns use a mix of photo instructions and illustrations. Sewing from the illustrated patterns takes a bit more patience, especially if you are new to doll sewing.

What makes Harmonia bloom different from other doll series?

Harmonia bloom combines the hand-painted makeup and glass eyes of classic dolls with the joint movement of an articulated doll. This issue includes an interview with sculptor Sakurako Ishinaga on the design process, along with clothing patterns from 4 different artists.

Are older Dollybird volumes still available?

Yes. eBay is one of the best places for out-of-print volumes. CDJapan, Etsy, and Amazon Japan also carry Dollybird books. See the Complete List of Dollybird Magazine Books for the full index.

  1. I really hope that the Harmonia Bloom comes to AmiAmi! I wouldn’t mind picking up the new chuchu either! Dollybird always has the best color palette and it makes me want all the dolls LoL …I may already have 5 Dollybird exclusive dolls in my collection ( >< )

    1. Jessica your wish has been granted. The dolls are up on Ami Ami.

      It’s so wonderful that we have the option to either order Dollybird exclusives through Ami Ami or a proxy shipping service.

      If you decided to bring 1 or all home, do come back and let us know.

      It was fun chatting with you.
