It’s great that I came across your blog about making doll clothes. I agree with what you said that girls love getting new outfits for their Barbies, baby dolls, and American Girl dolls. My niece loves dressing up her dolls. She even wants to pair with her dolls when it comes to clothing. This is why my sister is thinking of buying more clothes for her daughter’s dolls. Since she’s always busy at work, she couldn’t find time to sew dresses for the dolls. I believe that it will be best for my sister to shop instead to buy new doll clothes. Thanks for sharing your article.
