Beth's Outfit

This is an outfit I put together for Beth! It consists of a newsboy style hat, a tank top, grey cardigan, boots, and green skater skirt.

 

Basketball Shorts

I saw that Kaitlyn at AmericanGirlPlace made her boy doll some cute basketball shorts. When I got some old basketball shorts, I made a pair of shorts for my dolls!

 

I made them using an altered Liberty Jane pattern.

 

 

They are great for playing basketball, of course, but are also comfy to wear on a laid back day.

Leopard Leggings and Floral Shorts

Red and Grey Floral Shorts and Matching Bracelet

Leopard Leggings Outfit

Secondhand Lions the Musical Outfit

This outfit is completely upcycled!  The t-shirt says "Secondhand Lions" "A New Musical Adventure" and was made with this pattern.  The white skirt is a simple design with an elastic waistband.  Both items, especially the skirt, have great mix and match ability.

Leopard Print Swimsuit

I made my Rebecca doll a new swimsuit for summer in May, so I thought I would use some fabric from a pair of active wear leggings to make a swimsuit for my other AG doll.  I think this fabric is great for dolls because the leopard print is so tiny!

 

 

 I used the free swimsuit pattern from Pixie Faire.

 

 

The pink water shoes are from Sophia's.

 

Just before I finished making the suit, I decided to add a little skirt to it.

What My Dolls are Wearing Today!

Today I took some pictures of my dolls in their current outfits!  I did a post like this before on my old blog here. 

The first outfit!

 

This outfit includes a The Sound of Music t-shirt, orange leggings, blue shoes, a matching necklace, and a hair bow.

 

 

 

You can check out how I made the t-shirt by seeing an older post here.  The matching necklace has green, orange, and blue beads.  I didn't plan for it to match this t-shirt when I was making it, but the two go well together!

 

These shoes are so cute!  They are from AmericanFashionWorld on Amazon.com.  They also come in many other colors.

 



The bright leggings are made with this pattern from Sew Adollable.

The second outfit is Mickey Mouse themed!

 

 

This casual ensemble includes a vintage-style Mickey Mouse t-shirt, a Mickey charm necklace, and black shorts.

 

The black shorts are a favorite piece of mine, because they are so versatile!  They are upcycled from a black t-shirt and made using the shorts variation of this pattern on Pixie Faire.

 

 

 

The shorts have a blue foldover waistband without elastic.

Summer Outfit #1!

Since a lot of my sewing time goes to making fun stuff for my Etsy shop, my dolls haven't gotten many new clothes recently.  I decided that they each needed a new summer outfit of their own!  I had meant to do a photo shoot of my doll in her new outfit, but today I will explain how I made the items, and hopefully do a photo shoot later on :)

This outfit is made of completely upcycled fabric.  The shorts I cut from a black and white floral dress, with light and soft woven fabric.

The tank is made with the Pixie Faire pattern here.  I cut off about one inch from the bottom hem, and left the edge raw.  The saying I saw on Pinterest, and thought it would be fun on a shirt!

The matching bracelet is made of glass seed beads, elastic cord, and a crimp bead.

Today's New Item!

Flower Cut Out Tank Top

I made this tank top with white interlock knit using this pattern from Pixie Faire.

After I finished the basic tank, I took a stencil of a flower and traced it with a pencil onto the front of the tank top.  I also could have cut the flower shape out of the tank top front pattern piece before putting the top together.

When I had traced it, I used my rotary cutter to cut out the shape.

I then cut out a flower in light pink interlock knit.  

I pinned and stitched the flower to the tank.
