Welcome to Part 2 of my video series where I’ll be showing you how to alter my 18 Inch American Girl Summer Dress and Cabbage Patch Summer Dress Doll Clothes Patterns to create over a dozen different outfits.
In Part 1 we looked at how to simplify the dress and create cute little summer tops. Today I will show you how to use the bottom of the dress to make a skirt, how to make another top and two more variations to the dress.
Are you ready? Great, press ‘Play’ and we’ll get started!
I hope you enjoyed this video and have fun trying these alterations. Join me next time for Part 3.
Until then, Happy Sewing

Just a note that I am really enjoying your videos – they are very well explained as well as your sewing is beautiful. Thank you for making it so “do-able.” 🙂
It’s great to hear that you are enjoying my videos and thank you for the lovely comments Mary. Happy sewing 🙂
Hi Rosie,
These videos are lovely and timely with Christmas just around the corner. I’ve had both my knees replaced this year and haven’t been able to sit very long at my machines. Your patterns are so easy and quick to do that I will be able to get quite a lot done for my girls and their cousins. Thank you for the great tips. Best wishes
Hi Cherrylmaree, I’m sure your girls and their cousins will love whatever you make them for Christmas and I wish you a full and speedy recovery from your two knee replacements 🙂
