1854 Girl's Dress
For Molly's 13th birthday, I made her an outfit fashioned after the American Girl doll, "Kirsten." Some friends (you know who you are; thankyou again!!) =) lent us some patterns for a dress along with patterns for a petticoat & pantaloons.

How cute! That turned out really cute, Cheri!
That's beautiful - good job!
What a special gift!
That turned out really well. Good job! I'll look forward to sewing one up for Anna...
Thanks, ladies! =)
I love it! I'm sure Molly is just so happy! :)
Was that by Sarah M. or Sarah B.? =) Yes, Molly was SO excited! She's not much one for affections, but she came up and hugged me after she opened it. =)
That's so sweet, Cheri! Great work! :)
That's really cute! I would've loved such an outfit as a girl (ahem, I guess I still would). ;)
You did a beautiful job! My daughters would love to wear dresses like that all the time plus the bonnet.

Thankyou again! =)
That was Sarah M. above! I guess I'll have to identify myself more clearly from now on! =)
That is so pretty..... did you make the sunbonnet too?
I'm thinking I will have to find a pattern for these. They are so cute!
Thanks for sharing!
