The designs will come to you in a zip file with nine machine embroidery formats available!  They would be a great stocking stuffer!

Share your creations for Christmas!

Did you use a pattern from BeachBabyDoll.com to make something really special? I would so love to see a picture! Other seamstresses would enjoy viewing it too. Beginner? No problem! Let us help you bask in your accomplishment! Advanced? Maybe we can learn from you!

Announcing: the new "Your Creations" page. Here's how it works:  If you make a doll outfit or item with one of BeachBabyDoll's patterns and you want to share; just send me an e-mail (address found here) At least part of the outfit must have been made with a BeachBabyDoll.com pattern. In this way, I hope people will be inspired to use the patterns in an endless array of creativity. Do you sell doll clothes that you make? I'll be happy to give a link back to your shop, site, or brick and mortar store. Cheri has started us off. Visit the Your Creations page  to see her fabulous Christmas pajamas!

What's New?
 The newest pattern in our collection is a scrubs top to fit BFC Ink dolls.Yes, You can make it before Christmas! It features a lined top and a great divided pocket that really works. There's also instructions for the easy-to-make stethoscope. Find it on BeachBabyDoll's pattern page for BFC Ink. It makes up fast. There's plenty of time to make it before Christmas. Surprise someone with a doctor, nurse or vet in the family! Pair the top with the simple pants pattern. The two are now sold in a Scrubs bundle for your convenience.

The Everything Doll Costume Pattern: Have you seen it?

At BeachBabyDoll.com. we (that is me, the dolls and Fred) are all so excited about the new Everything Doll Costume Pattern! Why, because we hope our customers and fans will show us some of the huge variety of clothes and costumes they can create with this pattern. Many people are starting to work on stuff for Christmas. Some ladies I know feel badly because they don't have much time and probably may not get to sewing doll clothes for their little special ones till Christmas eve. I hope this pattern can help. It's so easy and quick and makes a bunch of things.That leaves you lots of time to enjoy your family and thanking God for them! Girls just learning to sew will love this pattern because it's very forgiving and lets them be creative. I start you off with some suggestions for outfits like Bible Time and Nativity costumes which is how I got started sewing with this pattern, but you will see how vast the variety is of things you can make.Like:
Pilgrim

King

Prairie Girl

Bible Time Characters

Christmas Party Dress for Miss Claus
Update 8--26-2013: There are currently three doll sizes for this pattern: American Girl size (18 in soft body doll), BFC Ink large doll size  (18 in very slim vinyl doll includes vintage ones like Super size Barbie, Tiffany Taylor), Hearts for Hearts Girls and Les Cherie size (14 inch dolls).   Each size is sold separately. All the sizes can make all the items pictured and a gazillion more things. In the accompanying 30 page e-book and sewing guide I give you the basic garment pattern and instructions, suggestions to get creativity flowing as well as some little accessory patterns and ideas.
Party Idea: In addition, I thought it would be so much fun for girls to throw a doll costume party where the guests could make their own original doll costume. I've included a little design template for that as well as an invitation.  A nice granny or mom may want to sew up a few muslin versions of the basic garment, then let the girls add the embellishments whether actually sewing or using markers and gluing. Here's the link to my Etsy shop where you can now instantly download the pattern and guide to fit the three dolls sizes above BeachBabyDoll.etsy.com.  Happy sewing!
PS: I'm happy to give you a great introductory price. This  e-book and pattern is only $4.49 USD at BeachBabyDoll.com. And the proceeds help kids! Read "About" above. I now send my doll clothes patterns all over the world. What a blessing and a joy!  Sylvia

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.
