Of all the months of the year, I love September the most.  The weather is usually perfect where I live – it is Spring-time and everything comes to life.  But probably the biggest reason I love September, is that I get to celebrate my birthday with family and friends!

I love sewing my own doll clothes patterns (and anything at all for that matter) because when I have finished making the outfit, I know that it is a ‘one of a kind’. No one else will have exactly the same outfit made from the same material and with the same finishing touches and I know my daughter feels pretty special when she dresses her doll in clothes that no one else has!

But what I love the most about making doll clothes is …..

We all know how quickly kids grow these days and how good clothes seem to ‘shrink’ overnight, but have you thought about using these clothes when sewing doll clothes patterns?

I had an email from a customer the other day who was having difficulty finding suitable stretch fabric to make the underpants pattern.  I emailed her back suggesting that if she had a t-shirt that she no longer wore, perhaps she could make the underpants from the fabric in this shirt.  My customer was thrilled with this suggestion as she had a whole bag of clothes that she had put aside to give away and in it was a t-shirt that would be perfect for the job.  She also started looking at all the other things in the bag and suddenly her imagination was working overtime….this would make up into a lovely dress and these would be great as long pants.

These Fairy Wings are available under ‘Accessories’ in the 18 inch American Girl doll clothes patterns range and the 18 ½ inch Cabbage Patch doll clothes patterns range.  These wings are so quick and easy to make that you can make a pair of Fairy Wings for all of your dolls in no time at all.  Or why not make a pair for each of your quests as a ‘take home’ present for their doll next time you have a sleepover or birthday party….they will love you for it!

I love a story with a happy ending and it was wonderful to receive an email from a mom thanking me for my ‘How to Make Doll Clothes’ online video course. You see, Mom has been sewing for years and was wrapped when her daughter asked her to teach her how to sew. It just wasn’t working though, because every time they sat down at the sewing machine, they would end up arguing and it was becoming too stressful. She was just about to give up when …..

I am pleased to add this cute hat pattern into the Cabbage Patch Kids doll clothes patterns range.  I have received lots of requests from Cabbage Patch lovers who want the American Girl hat pattern I have available to be made bigger to suit the Cabbage Patch doll, so here it is.
