Kites a-flying!


This breezy dress is made of excellent light weight fabric for a sundress of sky blue cotton with scattered kites,  their bright tails fluttering. I detailed the ruffled trim with woven blue gingham piping and bows.  Amelia's sundresses closes in the back with velcro, and a secured bow.  Her shrug is white pique lined with blue gingham showing in the tiny lapels. Interchangeable bows of gingham and the kite print clip into the white pique covered plastic hairband.  Amie's shoes are white patent look with a velcro strap and roses on the vamp.

A Little Bit of Lovely


Lydia wants you to know that you really don't have to buy this dress.  She will be very happy to keep wearing it for a while!  I liked the fabric the minute I saw it, and was glad to see it turn out so well.  The weight of the mossy green, magic wand cotton print is well suited to the full hand hemmed skirt.  White grosgrain polyester ribbon is at the waist of the lined bodice.  There is a back velcro closure and secured bow.  What really sets this dress off is the removable white shawl collar with eyelet trim.   I made a very versatile elastic hair band that can double as a scrunchie too. Bright pink dotty pumps are the finishing touch.

This set contains the dress, collar, hair band, and pumps for $25.00

Crisp and Neat

I love polka dots! This fabric grabbed my attention as soon as I saw it, and I'm not even a big fan of the purple  section of the color wheel. I made this wonderful cotton up in a strapped sundress with  a self fabric tie, white piping and a back velcro closure. The dress is hand hemmed, and the bodice is lined.  To compliment the simple clean line of the dress, I made a white cotton pique lined shrug.  Lydia insisted on the hat and of course, we had to add the new open toe orchid pumps.

Lydia's complete outfit is $27.00.  Separately: dress and shrug - $17, Hat - $5, shoes - $9.

Lydia is very pleased to show you this briskly colored dress of navy blue, lime green and lemony yellow floral print on a crisp white back ground of cotton and poly blend. You'll love the very full, hand hemmed skirt, and fluffy secure bow at the back which is closed with velcro.  I covered the plastic headband with fabric to match the skirt, but could adjust that to any of the other fabrics on the dress if you so choose - just let me know. Sprightly lime green shoes match the lined bodice of the dress.

This outfit contains the dress, headband and shoes for $24.00.  Separately: dress-$16, hair band - $4, shoes-$6.  Convo if you want to change the listing.

Jaunty hat to match a Cheery dress

This is a hat to match the dress recently posted since some interested parties wanted no hat or a separate hat.  Even as a little girl I loved hats on my dolls, as my mom could tell you.  My Ginny dolls all had wonderful hats thanks to my mom who helped me love my dolls. This hat is straw and fits most 18" dolls very well, but not the Springfield dolls or slim dolls with smaller heads.
A jaunty red hat can be perched on your dolly's head for $6.00
