Make a custom table playhouse just right for children looking for a hideout or a place to set up house for their dolls and other stuffed toys. There are no pattern pieces included in this pattern. Instead, there are detailed instructions for cutting the pieces to make a custom fit and designed playhouse suitable for just about any size rectangular or square table. This is a fairly easy to sew design with straight seams and no fasteners. Since it is made entirely of cloth, it is easy to fold up for easy storage when not in use.
This PDF sewing pattern, by Thimbles and Acorns, is designed to be used with 18 inch dolls.
