The days before Christmas

The final Christmas sewing is complete.
The most complicated item was this retro dress with pleats -
a free download from Pixie Faire.

Making doll clothes is a great use of scraps.
All the fabric is from my scrap stash.


I tried it on a similar doll just to get an idea of the fit.


Below are all the dresses and accessories with the bag that will hold everything.
Shoes found at Hobby Lobby. I crocheted the cranberry colored slippers.


The yellow pleated dress is so cute.


I had some gauzy cloth bags that are holding shoes and jewelry.


One small plastic container will help keep the small things together.


There is even a small fashion shopping bag.
A girl has to shop!


The sleeping bag is my own design.
I used hook and loop tape instead of a zipper.


The very last thing is a flannel jumper and purchased knit top.
The jumper is an easy sew pattern with only 3 pieces.
Can't decide if it needs decorative buttons.


Photo showing the pattern.
It had never been used but I found it with some of my mom's patterns.
I think it was bought when our daughter was small.
(She is 40, so a few years ago.)


Getting ready to wrap presents.
Food prep is done.
Merry Christmas!
