Simple Doll Dress From 18 inch Dolls 

like the American Girl Dolls

I have been working on some fun American Girl Doll Items

 for my Grand daughter's Birthday.

And I realized the Doll I use for sizing and modeling is 

undressed. I made a simple doll dress and really liked 

how it turned out. So I am sharing it with you.

Bright Colors!

Be looking for a few more doll items, 

as I have a few more items in mind.
