Some links:

Free doll patterns at Cloth Doll Connection
There are some cute ones, some funky ones, and some basic ones.

My favorites:
the Zaftig fairy
Your own tiny little Sumo wrestler Awww, isn't he cute!
and then there is the (in)famous Dammit Doll, complete with poem.

I actually made one of the sumo wrestlers. It is a cute pattern, if a little bit weird to an American. I even bought a little piece of Ultrasuede to make the waist-wrap-loincloth thingy (which has a technical name but I can't remember it now).

Yes, I am bored at work.
