Tuesday Tutorial ---- Doll Clothes

Today I thought I would share some tutorials for doll clothes.   Little girls love to play dress up with their dolls but clothes for dolls can be expensive.   Your daughter or grandaughter  would love to find some of these outfits under the tree.

Make this outfit for an American Girl doll with this tutorial from Strictly Homemade.


There are a lot of free doll clothes patterns on this site.   Infinite Freedom


And let's not forget Barbie.  There are several outfit tutorials on Craftiness Is Not Optional.

Your little girl will love finding one or more of these outfits under the tree.   Happy sewing!
