Inspired by pldc (Loralye) I made my GD some clothes for a Barbie I have bought her for her birthday. She will only be four so I have made her fairy/mermaid/bride outfits more than high fashion. Mainly crochet, but the bride's tiara and the fairy wings are machine embroidery.

Wow! Looks like they were made by a professional! I just love the dress with the ruffles. How did you edge that organza veil?

Thank you everyone for your kind comments. Because I had two sons, apart from a few action man outfits, these are the first girly clothes I have made. The crotchet outfits were based on the bodice pattern in link. The second link is for the mermaid tail. The pinky/purple outfit is all crocheted with the dress part made of a ribbon yarn. The boots were based on a sock pattern I found on the web with the same frill as the dress. The bride's veil is a circle of netting edged with string of small pearls attached with a beading foot for my overlocker. Her tiara is a FSL heart shape turned upside down. I wrapped this around a loop of elastic and stitched the veil to that. I made a fabric bodice for the bride with ribbon straps and just added a semicircle of fabric for the dress.
