1 review   |  

Perfect for summer activities, your 18-inch doll will look adorable in either the gorgeous ‘Melody Fair’ Halter Dress or charming Romper shorts from Little Miss Muffett.

Both the Dress and the Romper have a fully lined, round necked Front Bodice with bound, ruffled, raglan-cut arms with the binding forming part of the Halter Ties. The low cut Bodice Back closes with Hook & Loop Tape.

The short pants Romper sports two ‘crescent shaped’, ruffled and bound novelty pockets, which are finished with buttons on the crescent points.

The Dress has a full gathered knee-length skirt with a Ruffled Insert towards the hemline. Two small buttons are attached at Bodice Center Front for added interest.

This Intermediate PDF sewing pattern from Little Miss Muffett is designed to fit 18-inch soft-bodied dolls such as American Girl®.
