There are so many cute outfits here. I'm planning on making lots of 18" clothes this yr, I have a few granddaughers and one great granddaughter. I've been looking for patterns and found a few that were free. I can't afford the real AGD but Walmarts and Target has some that are really cute. Plus with girls so young I'd feel better spending 30 on each doll, especially when I need 3 or 4 of them. Good luck with the thread request. At least one was asked about for the embroidery section and was vetoed saying they had to draw the line somewhere. There are alot of quilts that have embroidery on them. But you can do what the embroidery did, you can see the thread about embroidery chat and it has I think over a 1000 post added to it. I'm hoping to have as much luck finding patterns and making things as cute as you all have.
