Easy Prairie Girl Dress Pattern for American Girl Dolls

Today I am so happy to feature this lovely Prairie Girl costume made by one of my customers, Stephanie. Stephanie used BeachBabyDoll's Everything Doll Costume pattern to make this gorgeous, yet simple dress and apron. Stephanie demonstrates in her work that it doesn't have to be difficult to be delightful!

You can see in the following close-ups what nice skills Stephanie used in making very neat gathers in the apron and in placing the buttons and bow precisely. I love the trim she used for the apron waistband and the contrasting thread in the hem.

Stephanie's lovely prairie dress will be displayed on BeachBabyDoll's "Your Creations" page where you all can inspire us. Thanks so much, Stephanie!

New for Hearts for Hearts Girls: Tee shirt pattern and complete sewing guide

Girls all over the world wear tee shirts! Did you ever think about that? It's a fashion staple from Canada to Chile and Siberia to Australia. So of course, all your new Hearts for Hearts girls need a cute fitted tee. I just developed a pattern especially fitted for the 14 inch Hearts for Hearts Girls. Click here for pattern site. It's a great pattern and tutorial for beginning seamstresses or for people who don't have time to make a pattern for this smaller doll. She is much tinier than American Girl. I made the tee shirt pattern because I am going to make her a sari costume and use a cropped tee for the top.
If you haven't "met" the Hearts for Hearts Girls yet, you will love it when you do. They are from different countries and have great life stories. They are sturdy and have great hair and accessories to their outfits. The web site www.hearts4heartsgirls.com carries stories about real girls from the countries represented by all the dolls. Sales of the dolls help children around the world through World Vision.
The picture is my Nahji Hearts for Hearts Girl whom I named Anusia. See my previous post.

What Christmas and Easter and Life is all about!

What's the Good News of Christ?" It's Good News for everyone that God sent Himself into the world to be a man and to become a substitute taking the punishment for man for all his sins. The Bible says everyone sins. Did you ever even tell one little "white lie" or say or think something unkind about someone? Then you have sinned. And we become enslaved by guilt and our sins. Ugh! Sin saps our energy.The Bible says we are dead spiritually, when we don't know Jesus Christ as our Savior. That means we can't really get close to God, our Creator, because He is perfect but our sin separates us from Him. So we need to get a life and know God (Jesus). When we learn about how God sent Jesus for us, we trust in Him to be able to wipe out COMPLETELY our sins that separate us from God.. We can learn about God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit in the Bible which is God's true Word. After we learn how much He loves us, we can approach Him for forgiveness. He accepts our plea in trust for forgiveness and saves us, giving us new life in Him. All the stuff we did wrong is wiped out because Jesus died on the cross for each of us. He totally conquered sin and death when He rose again at His resurrection. Knowing that and trusting Him for our salvation, we can start to really live through the gift of the Holy Spirit in our heart which is Jesus's Spirit that He promised us. We're still going to sin but the Holy Spirit will help us know when that happens so we can approach the Lord about it and learn to live more like He did on earth. And even more wonderful, Jesus says when we come to Him for salvation, He makes us a place in Heaven with Him so we will live forever. If you don't know about this in your heart, pray first even if you don't know what to say, check out the Bible, use a translation you can understand and read the book of John in the New Testament. John 3:16 is very famous and so is the next verse #17. ¹⁶" For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. ¹⁷ For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." If you are really interested in learning more about who God is, ask a pastor or Christian friend to give you some help learning about Jesus in the Bible and to pray for you. You can pray anytime. God loves to hear from you!
