Volunteer at the Orphanage 18" Doll Clothes Pattern
This delightful mid-19th dress and apron set by Keepers Dolly Duds features a calf-length dress with short sleeves edged with a dainty pleated trim. A one-piece collar finishes the neckline and three growth tucks add a subtle decorative touch to the full-gathered skirting. For easy dressing, the dress opens all the way down in the back and is secured with seven buttons. Snaps or hook-and-loop tape can be used, if preferred.
The full wrap-around apron has a front bib with fixed shoulder straps and ties in the back.
To complete the ensemble, a bonus head wrap is included with the pattern. It comes in two different sizes to accommodate a variety of different modern and historical head wrap styles.
This PDF sewing pattern by Keepers Dolly Duds is designed to fit popular 18" dolls such as those shown in the photos.
