With that fabric I'm thinking they will be needing little straw hats and purses too!

The dresses will be very pretty with that fabric. I agree with straw hats and purses.

My GD loves her American doll. I am sure there will be a happy little girl with clothes made from that gorgeous fabric. If you get carried away making the outfits, just send one my way for Emily.

Here's a site that has straw hats for dolls. http://www.dollspart.com/index.html You also might try Hobby Lobby as they also might have some.
I love the fabric. I'm gathering fabric for a sunflower quilt and that would fit the bill. Great find!
