Upsie Daisy




Ruthie is all ready for church or temple this weekend in her delicately colored sundress and shrug. I really liked this fabric and was very pleased when I found the perfect solid to go with it and wow – who could believe the shoes! Talk about everything falling into place. One of the wonderful things about these creative ventures is seeing the final product turn out so well. Now for the details – this is made of cotton and polyester blend broadcloth, with ribbon trim, velcro closures and finished seams.

This ensemble includes the dress, shrug, hair band, hand bag, and shoes for $19.00.

Summer Flowers



Here is nice little skirt and blouse that will also work nicely for mixing & matching. The cotton-polyester blend fabric has wonderful body and a very pretty purple rose print. Trim fabric,(It's a very intense dark purple - even if it does look blue.) also cotton-polyester blend has a little sparkle to it, to bring out the fancy in any doll who wants to dress up a bit. Velcro closes the back of the blouse; the skirt has an elastic waist. Small faux jeweled flowers are blooming around the neckline. Lavender sandals with a bow are included in this outfit, unless I find the sandals I really want to use, in which case, I change the detail and give you a choice. ;)

$17.00 includes the skirt, blouse, belt, sandals and 4 hair bows.

Theme: Horses












My first thought was – horses = western / prairie look so I make the tiered skirt & gaucho sets with interchangeable blouses and reversible vest. Then – I thought maybe the girls were really just into the horse theme, not particularly western, so I got the color choices from you and went with a cute summer look with tops & switchable bottoms. I used the four buttons I have on each set; just pining them on. I can also make hair bands or tote bags if you would like them for the outfits.

I only had the one remnant of fabric with a horse print that was at all suitable, so made the top I used with the gouchos, but it could just as well be used with some of the jeans in the store or the white capris.

So… just let me know if either of these sets is what you had in mind. I’ll sew the buttons on what ever set or garments you would like. I’ll have your choices in the shop the day after I hear from you.

Here are my prices, I’ll price each piece separately so you can pick and choose. The buttons were expensive : $ 3.00 for a card of 2, so beyond the price of the garments there would be $6.00 added for the buttons.

Blouses or tops - $5.00
Shorts – $4.00
Capris or Gouchos - $5.00
Tiered Skirt with Sash - $8.00
Hair bands - $1.00
Tote bags / purses/ sling sacks & 2.00
Any of the shoes are $7.00 each and the cowboy boots are $10.00

Pink Prettiness


Loretta is just thrilled with this lovely sundress. The fabric is beautiful on its own, so the simple design of the dress construction is a perfect show case for the polyester silk embroidery of the poly-cotton eyelet. The bodice and skirt are both lined and finished and have a velcro closure. The hair band is fastened with vlecro. Sandals with rhinestones are by Sophia’s ® and are very nice fitting.

This very pretty set includes the dress, hair band and shoes for $16.00.

Stars Ahoy


How cute is this starry swim set! I love the colors and matching buttons. I wanted to try making a hat, and this fabric was the perfect thing. I have to say, I’m pretty happy with the result. Of course, the bright cotton print may have a lot to do with the appeal. All the pieces of this set are completely lined and made of cotton and polyester broadcloth. The pull-up bottoms have elastic in the back, and the top has a vlecro closure.

Your dolly can be a star swimmer for $13.00. The 2- piece swim suit, hat, tote bag and beach ball are included in that price.

Too cute!


Your dolly is going to like these shorties so much; she won’t want to take them off! The little jammys are made of adorable pink sweetheart flower print cotton seersucker with lace and rosebud trim. The same fabric is used for the hair scrunchie and slippers. Complimentary solid pink seersucker is used for the bloomer bottoms and detail bows for the slippers and top.

This too cute set will be your dolly’s for $15.00 and includes the top, bloomers, slippers and scrunchie.

Lookin' Fancy


My mom used to call an outfit like this a two-piece dress. It really does look and wear like a dress, but with the advantage of a skirt and blouse. Both have back velcro closures and easy on/off features. The puffy blouse is made of ecru eyelet and the neck and sleeve bands are completely finished to eliminate fraying. The skirt is tiered eyelet and cotton broadcloth with rick rack, ribbon, buttons and bead embellishment. The handbag and hair band are made of crochet lace, and matching trims. The shoes I chose to finish the set are oatmeal colored canvas by Sophia’s®.

This $18.00 outfit includes the blouse, skirt, headband, handbag, and shoes.

Yep, Ruthie joined the local doll’s soccer team, but you know what a ‘girl’s girl’ she is, so here’s her choice for practice wear! Powder puff colors of pink, blue, white & green stripe across her sweatband, shirt, shorts, sox and bag. Look! She even found shoes to match the colors – man, can that girl shop! The entire outfit is made of polyester rib-knit and is really stretchy for all that activity. The shorts have an elastic waist and the top has a Velcro closure

The outfit includes the Sweatband, shirt, shorts, draw string bag, sox, & shoes…. But wait… that’s not all. I’ll even include the ball for $18.00. ;)

Orchid Tiers


Addy’s favorite color is purple, so she couldn’t wait to show you this wonderful tiered skirt and puffy blouse with button and bead embellishment. The blouse has a full back opening with velcro closure, and the skirt has a full elastic waist. One of the things she likes best about her bow decorated belt is that it also works as a headband. The matching shiny butterfly sandals are great! The fact that they color match is super, but they fit perfectly and have secure heel slings and velcro straps so they stay on all through playing and travel.

This four piece outfit includes the blouse, skirt, belt and sandals for $16.00

Double the Fun



This is a really great outfit for your doll! It has two very different looks by using the reversible tank top and capri cuffs. The elastic waisted capris are made of crisp blue chambray. When you turn the pink cuffs, they match the pink side of the tank, leave them down and they can be worn with either side, but the star button goes nicely with the patriotic side of the top. I paired this versatile set with tan sandals.

The three piece outfit includes the tank, capris and sandals for $14.00

The night gown has a back velcro closure, and the hair band fastens in the back with velcro too. Overnights will be lots of fun when your dolly has this cute nightie to wear.
