Several weeks ago, eight women and girls from our family enjoyed a mother/daughter/grandmother’s daytrip to the American Girl Place in New York City. One week later, I found myself at the fabric store, carefully selecting a variety of fabrics and snatching up a bunch of patterns (McCall’s for a dollar!) to sew some doll clothes.
Don’t be fooled by the miniature clothespins — the tiny flannel nightgown I sewed measures only 11 inches from shoulder to hem. It looks so cozy that I almost wish it were my size, but instead, it’s for an American Girl Doll named Mia who you met back in June.
The pattern I used is McCall’s M6137. I spent a dollar for the pattern and $3.50 for the adorable pink flannel fabric.
This sweet little nightgown is one of my favorite things I’ve ever sewn.
