Every month a group of bloggers are challenged by C'mon Get Crafty to create a new craft or project from their own stash of goodies! Everyone is allowed a $10 allowance for necessities to complete their project (i.e. paint brushes, glue, etc), but the bulk of it must be created from their own stash of goodies.
Let's meet this month's bloggers!!
If you would like to join our Facebook Challenge Group, just ask!
My project begins with a wonderful sleepy eyed vintage doll from the late 1960's. It was a gift from my Fabulous Aunt. Here she is playing with our youngest granddaughters.
💕 We are all little girls at heart! 💕
Butterick B5624 is in my stash along with gobs of fabric and plenty of thread, so that's where we begin!
I got busy sewing each item from the pattern. (Click HERE to see where the first hat landed) Next were the accessories in red fleece including little shoes!
I still have a couple of crocheted collars from the 80's and one was added for this Winter Ensemble! They are just too pretty to toss! I love her cape, but have sewn a different hat since these photos were taken.
Here is the Free Pattern for Shoes I used. All the supplies for this project were already on hand.
Do you like playing with dolls?

How sweet. I use to love sewing for my dolls. And as I got older I really didn't want to give up playing with dolls but you know how life gets in the way.
