Diy American Girl Doll Dress With four little kids at home the majority of projects on my list are for them and I don't mind, it just doesn't give my little blog much variety. This is what we made yesterday...my girl's have been wanting to get matching clothes for them and their doll's. They see all the fancy outfits in the American Girl Magazine and they are a little out of our price range so we came up with this. We made this red gingham dress a couple years ago for my little girl after she had been watching Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and loved the dress Milly wore at the Barn Raising...you know! This was my favorite part! So now she and her doll can dress up like Milly and go on all kinds of adventures together. We added a little bow just to give it a little extra somethin, somethin! It went together fairly quickly considering it was the first doll dress I have ever sewn. If you are interested in making one for yourself click on Read More for the Tutorial. I used the same fabric for the lining.
