Yellow summer sundress

Sundress Style

Bright colors in the summer sun - one great look!  The stunning colors and bold print are all this dress requires to be one of your dolly's favorite dresses to wear.  The skirt is full and hand hemmed; the back sports a full opening and velcro closure.  The ribbon sash is unattached, so the secured bow over a velcro catch can be worn front, back or not at all.   The bodice is fully lined for a nice neat inside. 

If your dolly is jumping up and down begging for this dress, buy it for her for $16.00 or spend $25.00 to purchase the dress, hairband, and cute white sandals.

Floral Tea Dress

Sweet as a Strawberry

Fresh strawberries are in season here in lovely North Carolina.  I couldn't resist the chance to use this bright fabric with strawberries pretty enough to pick.  I made a sundress with a sweet-heart neckline  shoulder ruffles, and a full circle skirt. The bodice and waist treatment are lined, the skirt is hand hemmed and fluffed with a light tulle half-slip.  The dress has a full back opening, velcro closure, and secured bow with a decorative button. The underskirt has an enclosed elastic waist. To complete her outfit, Penny is wearing a red fabric covered plastic hair band, a glass beaded bracelet and white patent-look bow pumps. 

Penny's complete outfit of dress, slip, hair band, bracelet and shoes is $30.00.

Mix & Match Fun

If your dollies are like mine, they love a little mix & match change up for fun.  This outfit has two very different looks.  The soft white cotton knit cap sleeve t-shirt has periwinkle lace floral appliques, a full back opening, and velcro closure.  I also made a pair of mossy green and periwinkle print capris with a matching applique and elastic waist.  To round out that outfit there's a cute little hairband with a fabric flower.  When Loretta wants a change of pace, she can use the same clogs, but put on a great 3-pleat skirt & head band that really give the shirt a different look.

What a great addition to your dolly's wardrobe!  The t-shirt, capris, skirt, clogs and 2 head bands are $35.00 for 2 special outfits.

Spring is Made for Green

If it's spring, I inevitably want to sew something springy green.  The amazing ladies at CreateKidsCouture developed this wonderful pattern that I fully intend to overuse!  I made the skirt in my version a little longer than theirs, and added a velcro closure and secured bow to the back so that little fingers will have an easier time of dressing their dollies. If you prefer a full back opening to the elastic back waist, let me know and I can try that the next time I cut this pattern.

Audrey's dress is 100% cotton, with a double layer skirt with hiked side flounce.  As I said, the back fastens with velcro and has an elastic  back waist.  Her head band is plastic.  Beads and tiny buttons embellish the dress, though securely attached, I do not recommend this dress for toddlers for this reason. I will be glad to remove them if you wold like that done.

This lovely dress, headband and shoes can be in your dolly's closet for $ $25.00.
