Sisters 18″ Doll Clothes Pattern
The Flossie Potter “Sisters” dress pattern was created around two of my granddaughters. Bernadette is dainty and fanciful, imagining herself as a princess. Cecilia loves animals and playing in the dirt. Sometimes she wears her sister’s dresses, but she’s never a princess.
So these two dresses are for an imaginary Bernadette and Cecilia from the past. They’re similar, but they’re not alike. The girls play and share secrets and help each other with chores such as spinning yarn.
Have fun making one or both of these dresses! Pair it with the “18th & 19th Century Homespun Handicrafts” pattern to make your doll displays come alive!Â
And don’t forget to add some fancy footwear with the Colonial Accessories pattern!
