All my life, one of my favorite things to do has been sewing doll clothes. I haven't made any for years since my granddaughter outgrew the doll stage. So, I decided that for my charity donation project this year I would dress an 18" doll.
With my granddaughter as my trendy fashion consultant, I have made 36 items to be donated with the doll for a silent auction as a fundraiser for charity.
What fun I have had dreaming up outfits, searching for fabrics, and sewing. And shopping for the doll shoes was also fun!
I tried to make pieces that would mix and match to make a variety of outfits.
Pictured are some of the clothes and accessories I made.
Now, back to the real world!!!

Oh, my goodness, Sally! I saw your post on FB but you have really been busy! I love all of the cute little outfits and those jeans! Adorable! Whoever receives these outfits will be a very blessed and happy little girl! What can you not do?

Amazing. My grandma made me wonderful doll clothes. She encouraged my love of dolls. I can't say I made as many or as cute clothes as you did but I did sew them for my daughter. I don't have the patience for my grands. Maybe if I start now I could have some outfits by Christmas! Congrats to you and your fashion consultant.
ReplyDeleteVery, very cute! I too make these kinds of clothes-so much fun indeed!!
ReplyDeleteLove them! I've made lots of doll clothes for my daughters, I never thought of making them for a silent auction.
ReplyDeleteEach outfit is darling Sally! Some little girl is going to squeal with delight!! Thanks for sharing them with SYC.

Very talented, great work
ReplyDeleteI do not have children, never bought a doll, however, I have been gifted dolls, but never thought of making their clothes. Since I started making mini quilts by hand, I also make mini dolls.
