Freebie Friday Doll Clothes Pattern (November 11) Help Us Decide

Hi everyone,

On Friday (November 11th ) we are offering a free pattern by designer Gaby Shearer. Gaby is the creator of the Originals By Gaby and Baby Mine brands. The pattern will be free starting at Midnight Pacific Time and free one-day-only.

More About Gaby Shearer and the Baby Mine Brand, (in her own words): I should have known I was destined to create doll clothes patterns when I started sewing on my mom’s sewing machine at the young age of 6. When I turned 8, she rewarded me with my first Barbie doll patterns, many of which I still have. I purchased my first sewing machine, an old Singer Treadle, as a newlywed. I was creating doll clothes and altering patterns to fit Madame Alexander dolls, then giving them away as I didn’t have children yet. Soon I had 2 daughters and created party dresses, play clothes and Halloween costumes. Now I’m retired and thoroughly enjoying my rekindled love of sewing and creating doll clothes. Publishing my patterns is an added bonus, but the real blessing is seeing the amazing outfits created with the use of my patterns. Happy sewing to all!

I like so many options of the Tri-City Knit Dress for 18" dolls. It looks great to use as either a special occasion or casual dress or top. And even more ways to change it up with all the sleeve options. Best of all, it sounds like a good first project for using knits. Thank you for the variety of patterns :)

Gabby, they are all adorable. I chose the Tri-City knit dress & leggings for the 15" doll as I am getting ready to give away 3 refurbished dolls that size for kids at a neighboring school at Christmas. thank you so much.

I already purchased the little dress. Snappy Little Jacket for 18" doll is my favorite pick! It’s so SWEET and I just LOVE it! It would look so smart with many outfits! Thank you so much for whatever wins!

I voted for the AG snappy jacket because I already have the tri-city knit dress. I will say, though, that the Tri-City Knit Dress is a fantastic pattern. Easy to sew up and super cute.

Beautiful patterns, thank you Gabby. I especially love the dress for the 18 inch dolls.
