Recreate an enduring 17th-century pilgrim girl costume with this meticulously designed pattern by Keepers Dolly Duds. This early Colonial Pilgrim outfit pattern includes six pieces: coif (cap), ruff or falling band (collar), waist coat, chemise, apron, and petticoat (skirt). The waistcoat is fully lined and features sleeve caps and a sweet little curved, split in the back, peplum. It fastens up the front with eyelets and ribbon or cording. The plain floor length petticoat fastens with a single snap closure at the back of the waistband. The chemise has a small standup collar, dropped shoulders with gathered sleeves and elasticized cuffs. The falling band collar or "ruff" is lightly gathered and fastens in the front center with a mini button and thread loop. The coif has an elasticized back and ties under the chin. The apron is long and narrow. It ties at the back waist.
This PDF sewing pattern is designed to fit 16" A Girl For All Time® dolls. It is also available for 18" dolls such as American Girl®.
