LOL! they are lots of fun, and those of you who are grandmothers to just the right age girls are probably being begged to make clothes. they are not difficult, just a little smaller than ours, but thank goodness, not as small as barbie's clothes!!
I have asked Patrice if we can have a thread that just keeps on going, where we can post the items we've made, and talk about the dolls, the children, and anything 18" dollish. if you enjoy these dolls i hope you will join us. did you know that fancy nancy wears the same size clothes as AGs? she does!
This is going to be very picture heavy and i am excited about others showing what they have made also. Most of the patterns i used are butterick or mc calls. they so far have the most designs.
Your things look super..I am sure you all know I have made hundreds of the doll things..I just love making the things..and funny thing is none of my 4 grand daughters are at all interested in them...I started off making the sweaters and hats to use up yarn...will post pics shortly
