What item is an essential part of any sporty summer wardrobe? Sneakers, of course! Follow along in this installment as I show you how to make the Retro Sneakers for 18-inch dolls.
I love this shoe pattern! It goes together perfectly and the shoes fit so well every time! If you haven't tried making shoes yet, I encourage you to give this one a try! Maybe even pair it with your new Match Maker Bubble Dress or Souvenir Jersey!
