Sewing for 14.5 inch Dolls Like Welliewishers™ and Glitter Girls®

The adorable collection of Welliewishers™ dolls hit the toy market with a bang. They are hard plastic dolls, made by American Girl® with adorable outfits and stories (and even a TV show!) aimed at the 3-6 year old age group. We saw an upsurge of smaller patterns and even some new doll lines (Ruby Red Fashion Friends). Glitter Girls are exactly the same size, but offer a cheaper alternative and are available on Target and AD: Amazon.

Oh Sew Kat! offers 31 PDF sewing patterns and value bundles that are perfect for your 14-15 inch dolls. Enjoy this easy reference post to see all of them at once! Click HERE to go right to the shop.

18″ American Girl® Doll Review – Truly Me #89

American Girl® has long been the industry leader in the 18 inch vinyl play doll market. When the company was founded, by Pleasant Rowland, it centered on the lives of six 10 year old girls, each living at a different time in American history. In 1995, the company expanded into a line of modern day dolls- letting girls write the story of their own dolls. Originally called Girls of Today, the doll line has evolved and expanded over the years, being called “Just Like You” (JLY), “My American Girl” (MAG), and now “Truly Me” (TM) dolls. Like other American Girl® dolls, toys, characters, and outfits, the dolls have retired, been updated, and gotten new meet outfits every two years or so, but they have kept the original numbering system, which now goes up to TM#92 and even includes some boy dolls.

Did you know? You can find a limited selection of dolls, outfits, and accessories in the AD: Amazon American Girl shop– often with free shipping!!

American Girl Doll Review- Truly Me #89

In the past two years, we’ve seen some big changes in the “Truly Me” line at American Girl®, not only with the option now to Create Your Own (CYO) doll, but with signature outfits and fun colored hair. I purchased TM#89 for my collection, and she has the Josefina face mold, tan skin and hazel eyes. Her hair has green and blue highlights, and she comes dressed in a camo sweat suit and chic accessories.

Use the Summertime Stroll PDF Sewing Pattern to make a cute batik top for your 18 inch American Girl doll.

My TM#89 is named Starr. She is a stunner!! I think she looks a lot like Leah (GOTY) except for the colored hair. She’s overall a super pretty doll and her hair is soft, long, and fun to style to see how the different colors fall out.

She was dressed in a cammo outfit- jacket, joggers, simple tank top plus some black shiny sneakers with embroidered roses. You can see them in the photo above- they do look great for photos! The shoes feel very plastic like- really my only complaint with the whole doll, but that seems to be the trend for the Truly Me dolls right now, which all come with hard plastic, pink glitter shoes.

Honestly, the outfit is not my doll style, but I think my 10 year old might have loved it back in the day. I love the idea that AG came out with some dolls and outfits that are not quite as girly girl rainbows and unicorns for girls that aren’t drawn to that look but still like to create characters and styles for dolls. I think AG was spot on here!!

Truly Me #89 American Girl Doll Review

Above, Starr is wearing a top made with the Oh Sew Kat! Summertime Stroll pattern. You can find it HERE. The turquoise dress below, is a pattern hack of the School Bell Blouse pattern. Find the tutorial HERE.

Overall, I’m giving Starr a solid A. She comes with a really complete outfit, which is more than a simple dress like in years’ past. I think you will see her popping up more often on facebook and here on my blog. What do you think about her?

Mix and Match – Pink Swirl Capsule Wardrobe for Dolls

Mix and Match Oh Sew Kat! Sewing Patterns to Make an 18″ Capsule Wardrobe

It’s quick, easy, and a lot of fun to make your 18 inch American Girl doll some cute mix and match separates with Oh Sew Kat! patterns. Each pattern (sold individually or in value bundles in my Etsy Shop) offer full sized, computer drawn pattern pieces that you print on your home computer, along with full color photos and directions for every step.

I love this pink swirly fabric with the bright pops of hot pink. It reminds me of cotton candy!! I like to usually choose a single print, then choose some solids to add pieces to the collection. For this set I chose two tops (Reversible Popsicle Top and School Bell Blouse) and two bottoms (Sandbox Shorts and Sixth Grade Skirt). You can mix and match all the pieces for lots of outfits for multiple seasons.

The Sandbox Shorts have real working pockets. I used the print fabric for the fun, patch pockets, but you can also use THIS TUTORIAL to put the pockets on the inside of the shorts. The shorts look cute with either the print or the solid side of the reversible Popsicle Top.

Make Doll Clothes for 15 inch Ruby Red Fashion Friends Doll with PDF Sewing Patterns from Oh Sew Kat!

I asked my test group to try their Welliewishers 14.5 inch doll clothing on their Ruby Red Fashion Friends 15 inch dolls. This is the feedback they gave me on the fit, as well as a few of their photos. Please note, that at the time of this writing, I do not own any RRFF dolls. These adaptations are just guidelines, and you may have to adjust the patterns more or less to your individual taste.

Please note that this list is not an exact science. The OSK patterns were designed to fit the Welliewishers™ and Glitter Girls® 14.5″ dolls. By adding a little length to most of my patterns, they will also fit the taller 15″ Ruby Red Fashion Friends. You may need to adjust the measurement more or less depending on the look you like for your dolls.

Sewing with Batiks Part 1 – DIY Doll Clothes

For a long, long time, I always passed by the batik sections of my favorite fabric stores. My mother, on the other hand, used more batiks than any other fabrics in all of her quilts. When she passed away, I picked through her collection and came home with some very pretty pieces of fabric. I also purchase batiks online at the Fat Quarter Shop (Like these from the Batik Club AD: Batik Clubs).

This rosy batik looked so different each time I used it. I think I’ve made four different items. These two were both made from the School Bell Blouse pattern. Grace is wearing the top, and Kendall is wearing the Dress Hack. Both have added crystals instead of buttons for some extra shine.

There are so many pretty batiks in bright fall colors and with leaf pattern designs.

These fall batiks had lots of swirling colors- each item made from it can take on a completely different look. Both dresses (photo above and below) were made with the Sugar N Spice Dress for 18 inch dolls. See more info in THIS POST.
