Sweet Summer Days 18" Doll Clothes Pattern

6 reviews   |  

This light and breezy crop top and skirt ensemble is the perfect for a summer afternoon picnic!

The sleeveless fitted crop top is fully lined and fastens in the back with buttons, snaps, or hook-and-loop tape.   The wide neckline ruffle gives it a playful feminine appeal.  A simple gathered skirt with a ruffled edge that mirrors the neckline ruffle completes the outfit.  It fastens with a snap at the waistband and three buttons or snaps down the center back.  For added interest, the ruffles can be cut on the bias.


    This PDF sewing pattern by Keepers Dolly Duds is designed to fit 18" dolls such as American Girl®.

    Sweet Summer Days Pattern

    I think that this is one of the cutest patterns I have seen in a long time. The instructions look clear and easy to follow. The download was easy. I can see this versatile pattern worked up in several ways, Hawaiian, Western, Nautical, and many more. This is a pattern I will use a lot.

    Hawaiian Version

    I was delighted to test this lovely new KDD pattern. As always, this pattern has the quality of design you can rely on with Keepers Dolly Duds! The top is fully lined. The fit is perfect on my Nanea AG doll. The style is versatile- I have seen it in florals & gingham & all were stunning. I want to try a country western interpretation, too! It’s a pattern you’ll want to have in your collection & use again & again!
