FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS How do I know what size to order? I now have a measurement page you may fill out and send to me. I will go over the measurements  and let you know what size outfits will fit. I custom make every order, so it is no trouble to adjust the pattern as I cut. This will insure a better fit. If you already know what size to order but would like a more tailored fit, fill out the form and send it to me the same day you place your order. Will I sew matching outfits for both doll and little girl? I would be happy to sew a matching outfit for your daughter or special little girl. My own daughter is going on 12 years, so I have many patterns at my disposal. Most patterns I have go up to a girl's size 16. I have made many matching outfits for her over the years. The outfits may not not be "exact" but my daughter doesn't seem to mind the subtle differences. I get them close enough. The only problem I have is fabric quantities. I keep a large assortment of fabric for my dolls, but not in large quantites. I just don't have the room to store such an inventory. If you are interested in a matching outfit for both doll and girl, you will have to provide the fabric. I will give you yardage and specific instructions if you are not familiar with buying fabric. I realize that is not the best situation but it is all I am able to offer at this time. Note, I am not taking any more girl size orders until after the Holidays. What is a special order? A special order is an outfit that I do NOT have a pattern or fabric listed. Any items or fabrics you see listed can be purchased immediately. Any items or fabrics you see listed can be purchased immediately. Many people are looking for a specific doll size or for an item in a particular color that I don't have listed. I will search for specific doll patterns for you and look for special fabrics for the dolls. How do I care for my dolls clothing? I pre-wash and dry all* my fabrics before I cut. You may wash and dry the clothes just as you would your own clothes. I recommend using cold water to prevent fading. *(I do not pre-wash my knit fabrics, they don't have a tendency to shrink. Wools and dressy fabrics such as satin, velvet & taffeta should be dry cleaned only.) Who makes your clothes? I do all my own sewing. I make each garment individually to insure quality. I am a certified fashion designer & sewing specialist with over 25 years of sewing experience.
