Summer dresses and tops for American Girl dolls

I purchased a pattern awhile back from Suzy M Studio Lillian Dress pattern and this week I am having lots of fun sewing with this pattern.

Below Isabelle American Girl of the Year 2014 is modeling this white eyelet dress

 Can wear any color shoe or hair accessories with the white Dress



Here is a Maxi dress made with the pattern 





Here is an A Line dress made with white cotton fabric with tiny dark blue flowers Summer Halter Dress






The pattern also has a top pattern to make a halter top.  I used cotton fabric with tiny blue flowers.  McKenna is modeling this outfit. 



You can find most of these items listed in my Etsy Shop GiGi's Doll Creations

American Girl Doll Bedding - Paris Theme and Wall Decor

I love the Paris Theme decor and bedding and I have made several American Girl doll Bedding designs.  I have sold several sets on my Etsy GiGis Doll Creations and locally.




This past week I decided to make some decor using my Brother ScanNcut   I used the dress form and shoes to make wall decor.  I also use the font for the word "Paris" and used the Eiffel Tower using vinyl.
I wanted to make a banner so I used the Brother ScanNcut to make a triangle template for the size I wanted. and I made this banner to coordinate the doll bedding.  

This set is currently listed on my Etsy - Paris Theme bedding and Decor






Here is another set of Paris Theme bedding I have listed Paris Theme - reversible bedding










Here are some others I have made and sold.






These prints have all been top sellers for me.  I enjoy sewing and setting up dolls for realistic photo shoots.  As always thanks for reading my blog.

American Girl Doll Kitchen and Custom Cabinet Tutorial

Dennis made a custom kitchen cabinet to fit in between the kitchen set I purchased from Target - Our Generation doll brand.  Our granddaughters love it. Screamed for joy when they seen this.

This kitchen set is worth the money.  $61 dollars and it comes with a lot of play food and dishes. 

McKenna likes the refrigerator.  The trash can is a pencil holder that I purchased from Dollar Tree. 

Isabelle likes to cook - made a cherry pie.
I didn't like the design behind the stove.  I purchased pink tile paper from Michael's and he laminated it and placed it onto top of what was there.  I like it better.  These are the kitchen accessories that came with the kitchen set. I am still going to decorate the walls.  

I love how this custom kitchen cabinet that he made turned out.  Doors open with shelves.
The larger can good and drinks, I added from a kitchen play set that the granddaughters played with.

He made his own pattern for this.

He purchased 1/2 inch pine craft board from Lowe's and small hinges for the doors. 





Here is the back before he put on the backing.  We chose not to paint the inside.  

Here is the small cabinet next to kitchen sink.  


I love how this kitchen turned out.  Granddaughters loved it too. He had already made the kitchen table and chairs.  Once again no pattern - came up with his own. 


Thanks for stopping by.  Be sure to "follow blog" to keep up with my American Girl Doll Creations.
