it's time for dolls! Sewing clothes for dolls is almost as much fun as playing with dolls. Certainly, it brings the reward of hugs and kisses from the person who is the recipient of the doll clothes. And, if you have a doll collection and enjoy sewing for dolls and dressing them in the latest fashions, welcome to the club.

In this set of clothes' designs, we've mixed in some contemporary fashion looks. Notice the collar on the coat design, the gathering above the knee in a pant-leg design and the color blocking of the A-line dress.

This collection features clothes for cool weather: a wool coat from wool blend felt, a tunic and coat with hook-and-loop fasteners, pajama pants and top from Asian-print fat quarters, a classic wrap dress, a drop-waist dress from floral fat quarters, a look-at-me holiday dress with marabou trim and hot-fix crystals, a perfect-for-the-office suit jacket and skirt, cropped jacket, traditional shirtdress, a fitted blouse with patterns to make both short or long sleeves and more. Also included are General Instructions with lots of illustrations for those making doll clothes for the first time, plus special instructions on making bias tape and folding pleats. With all the patterns in this book, you can mix and match tops and bottoms to create your own set of fashions, or you can use the patterns as is. Either way, you are in for lots of sewing fun and creativity.

Skill Level: Easy to Intermediate.
