Your 18-inch doll will look adorable in this beautiful ensemble, by Little Miss Muffett, consisting of a double layered Circular Top, slim-fit Shorts, and a lined Tote Bag. The Circular Top features an Off-the-Shoulder Ruffled Neckline with Ribbon Tie Shoulder Straps. The Neckline Ruffles have easy zigzagged hems. The top closes at the Back with hooks & eyes. The slim-fit Shorts, which have an elastic waist, feature smart buttoned double tabs on both pant legs. The lined Tote Bag, which has a plastic bottle base, is a super craft project combining sewing, hot glue, braid, lace, piping, ribbon, motifs, buttons, bows and jewels.
This fairly easy pattern is designed to fit 18-inch soft-bodied dolls such as American Girl®.
