I have been putting off this job of making Georgie's doll a school outfit. I knew it would be a swine to do and I was right. At school the girls are allowed to have a brooch or a pin on the collar. I decided that the doll must have a decoration on her collar. The ladybird was the smallest design I had. I have enclosed a school picture of Georgie. I will be sending it to Johannesburg next week.

Looks great she will be thrilled all her friends will want one now

Vert good Sarah, A+ job!

Vert? I will try again.

Very good Sarah, A+ job!

Beautiful job!

You did a wonderful job! She will love that it looks just like her own school outfit. Check out Pixie Faire for free patterns for the doll. They fit very well.

Yes Kay, it is. They are all the rage here in S.A. at the moment. Ridiculously expensive.

I found the patterns in the books will not work as the core or middle - waist are too small. I have not made any clothes in a while as the my grand daughters are too old now but you almost have a doll on hand to sew for and measure.

Thank you all for your comments. The dress with other things are all packed up ready to send on Monday. Would love to be a fly on the wall when Georgie sees her dolls dress

all for Georgie's friends will be green with envy

Well done, Sarah...Georgie will be thrilled!
