Have the best dressed baby doll in town!

I have just published a new baby doll pattern to fit baby Born 17" doll. The design is cute little rompers. So easy to dress your doll in these side opening rompers and of course all the little girls will want some dresses to fill out their wardrobe.

Easy to dress your doll

• Watch my video to see how easy it is to get these rompers on your doll

• I always use velcro patches. They are so easy to do up and undo yet they hold the outfit together really well.

• If you know your little one won't be able to tie a knot for the belt just add 3/4" to the end next to the fold and don't cut it on the fold. Sew each end and down one side so most of the other side is open. Finish it off like the one piece belt then put velcro patches at the back. Put it on the doll and tie up the knot. Now just use the velcro at the back to take it on and off. You may need to also make a special one for a head band.

Lots of dresses for those family get togethers

• Rompers are OK for playing but special visits need something a bit more dressy.

• The BD Dress is perfect for creating all sorts of dress variations. You could even make the rompers with singlet and pants fabric and make the dress into a top with a shorter skirt. Just fold up 1" to make the skirt pattern into a little over top.

• The dress pattern comes with two sleeves, two collars and pockets.

Organise your patterns so you can use them over and over

• Watch my video on how quick it is to make a booklet of instructions to go into your envelope.

• I keep all my patterns in folders with plastic pockets. 
• The folder divider page keeps my folders in order when I take out the pattern
• The envelope keeps my pieces in order while I have the pattern out for sewing.
• The instructions as booklet style fits neatly next to my sewing machine.

You may think my videos are a bit ordinary but the only way for me to get better is to just jump in and make some. I hope you enjoyed seeing me and my sewing room in my dress up video. I nearly dropped the doll trying to do up the belt knot so you could see what I was doing and it was really hard to cut out some of the dumbest bits and keep the commentary making sense.

I did make an effort to dress well. The check shirt I had on for the day was just a bit busy to hold the doll in front of and I figured if I was changing I may as well go all out and find a nice necklace.

I couldn't believe how hard it was to get the booklet into the envelope. I should have seen that coming. I might have to have a word with the props manager.

I hope you head on over to my shop now if not before. I have lots of 18" doll clothes patterns as well as the 3 Baby Doll patterns.
