When it comes to sewing and knitting—I prefer small.
Small projects, small clothing, especially doll clothes.
I think small.
When I see a children’s sweater or a dress I like, I start miniaturizing
the pattern for the doll version in my head.
I have been sewing clothing small and otherwise since I was eight.
I have sewn doll clothing for my sister, cousins, daughters, nieces, friends,
friends’ daughters, school auctions, charity auctions and eBay. I have given
away over a dozen Sasha dolls all with accompanying wardrobes and probably as
many American Girl dolls.
Below are a few examples.
I love to design the clothing. As for style, I prefer classic yet playful. I also like to
mix it up a bit. The combinations need to be playful.
I enjoy attention to detail. Vintage hem tapes, finishing
seams with a tiny serger stitch, hand stitching, pretty linings, tiny tags. No
detail is to small to have fun with.
