I volunteered to make a sample of a pattern for doll clothes that Mom has at her quilt shop. It was so much fun! I couldn't decide which fabrics I wanted to use, so Mom said I could make four dresses! It's a modkid pattern, and it might be the best pattern I've ever worked with. The instructions were very clear, the illustrations were helpful, and it only took about 2-3 hours to make each outfit.
We got out Mom's old doll and let her dress up too :) We need to make her an appointment with a doll restorer though (we know someone who's really good). For some reason, the poor doll has had her head partially shaved, and she's missing half of her eyelashes...
Shaved dolls seem to run in our mothers' family. Mom had a couple of her own that looked freakish from random eyelash plucking and haircutting...
