I was a little bit of a latecomer to the doll world. Instead of having tea parties or playing house, I loved making clothes for my American Girl doll, which turned into valuable sewing skills and making clothes for myself. If your child loves their 18 doll and wants to learn to sew, this is the book for them!
Designed specifically for 18 doll like the popular American Girl, Journey Girls, Our Generation dolls, this book will teach you how to make 22 different projects. You'll learn important information like choosing the right fabric, using a pattern, hand and machine sewing, seam allowance, pressing and more, all while making fun clothes like skirts, tops, bags, dresses, pajamas, sleeping bags, shorts and more. While the designs are pretty neutral, you can make them more retro or modern just by picking different fabrics or embellishments! A great introduction to sewing clothing. 112 softcover pages with included paper patterns. Laura
