I Luv Summer 18" Doll Clothes Pattern

6 reviews   |  

What girl can resist a summer dress perfect for picnics, parties and just having a great time?!  And the same goes for her doll!  This design, by Just 4 Us Dolls, for 18 inch dolls such as American Girl® provides the sewing enthusiast with plenty of opportunity for creativity through the use of coordinating colors, prints and trim options.  The faux tiered gathered skirt, bold midriff and bodice creates a cheerful contemporary look.  

To take advantage of the full skirt look of the I Luv Summer design, directions for a simple tulle petticoat have been included as a pattern bonus. 

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

Suggested fabrics are lightweight 100% cotton wovens.  Narrow double-fold bias tape is used to finish the neckline and armhole openings.  Instructions for a hook & loop closure are included but the design provides adequate margins for alternate closures such as zippers or snaps.  Optional trims include mini-piping and 3/4” to 1” lace.

Supplies Needed:

  • Top skirt: 10” by 22” woven fabric
  • Lower skirt & midriff section: 9” by 18” woven fabric
  • Bodice: 5” by 16” woven fabric
  • Mini-piping trim: 25”
