St. Patrick’s Day Doll Dresses: Sugar n Spice Sewing Pattern by Oh Sew Kat!

I do have an Irish heritage, and I’ve always loved it! March is one of my favorite times of the year, especially the shamrocks, and the music! Each year, I try to sew something shamrock themed for the dolls. This post shows the dresses I’ve made with the popular SUGAR N SPICE sewing pattern. It’s available in my shop in 3 sizes.

The beauty of the Sugar n Spice pattern is versatility and value. With an underdress and overdress option, plus some extras like an apron, cape, corset, and tutu, the time you spend making solid underdresses is time well spent. Notice each of these next photos. They all have the same, light green dress as a base! I’m just changing up what is layered over it in each photo. See the Easter version HERE.

Willa is wearing her green dress with an overskirt using the EVERYTHING NICE accessories pattern.

This little overskirt look is super quick and easy! Wear it frontwards or backwards like in this post.

Here she is in the same green dress, but the overskirt is replaced with a green tulle, tutu. (Instructions are found in the Everything Nice section of the pattern bundle.)

And for the 18 inch Dolls:

Yep! Same green dress- I added a seasonal overdress or pinafore, which is also included in the Sugar n Spice pattern.

Just the right touch: a ribbon belt and a cute button. Now the green dress really shines!

And here is one more from the same Sugar n Spice pattern. For this outfit, I took the pinafore/overdress from Sugar n Spice, and reversed it. I left the edges of the skirt unconnected, and layered it over a Party Time Peasant Dress. Read the post about it HERE.

Find the Sugar n Spice and Everything Nice pattern HERE for 18 inch dolls. Wellie Wishers and Animators’ sizes are also available. Put the LUCK OF THE IRISH into your doll’s wardrobe this month!

Step it Up Series: Make a Ruffled Dress with this Playtime Peasant Top Pattern Hack

The Playtime Peasant Top is so quick to sew and here at OSK, our dolls wear them all the time!! Use the Playtime Peasant Top PDF sewing pattern to make a cute and easy ruffled dress for your doll.  This easy pattern hack was shared with me by one of my pattern testers.  It’s such a simple idea and has a lot of wow factor as well.  The Playtime Peasant Top and Twirl Skirt pattern is quick and easy and available HERE in five popular doll sizes.

To make this ruffled dress, use the Oh Sew Kat! Playtime Peasant Top pattern.  Try another twist by adding a ruffle to the neckline as seen in THIS TUTORIAL.

1. You don’t have to make any changes to the pattern pieces!  Choose your fabrics, and cut out the front and back, short sleeves, and using the measurements for the Twirl Skirt, cut out the middle and lower tiered ruffles.
2. Follow the pattern instructions to assemble the top.  Do not sew the hem.
3. Follow the pattern instructions to hem and gather the lower tier and sew it to the middle tier.   With right sides together, sew your two tiers to the bottom edge of your top.
4. The dress looks great with or without a belt or tie.

Find the pattern in 5 popular doll sizes:

Playtime Peasant Top and Twirl Skirt for 18 inch Dolls like American Girl®

Your Melody doll will feel groovy in a swing dress you made yourself with the Oh Sew Kat! School Bell Blouse pattern.

When you are fabric shopping, keep your eyes open for small scale prints that look retro.  For Melody’s dress, I found this cotton fabric in a quilt store. I had no idea what I would make at the time, but I knew it would be perfect for Melody. Doesn’t she look great in this color?

Here are some pins on my Melody board on Pinterest that I used for inspiration.  Don’t forget to follow me while you are there! This white dress for ladies , this Barbie sized pattern, and this blue and red dresses all have the same wide sleeves, a-line look, and even the front pleat.
