marlet, I have four boys, one grandson, one husband & one male dog ( need I say more!) so I guess making doll clothes is my outlet for the little girl in me. I really enjoy making them but it takes longer to pick out a pattern & the fabric than to sew them. I keep telling myself that they are only doll clothes but it just doesn't sink in. When I'm sewing them my mind starts to wander about what little doo dads I can put on them to brighten them up & it just keeps going & going from there.
