Bunny Special Order Clothing

I have a customer who sent me their stuffed Bunny and wanted dresses.

So I measured the bunnies chest and shrunk my pattern to fit the bunnies chest. This one needed to have the tail sticking out so I left an opening for that. I would say that this pattern is for who wants a classic design.

Style 1


The next one, I decided to make a bit larger so the bunnies tail would fit inside the dress.

Style 2


The third one, (this was my third hour of sewing) so I decided to make a bit larger so it may also fit my 12" Cabbage Patch Doll. The larger the dress, the larger it will be on the bottom of the skirt. They could be made with tail in or tail out.

Style 3

Now, I am at hour 4 and decided to try a completely different pattern that I had never sewn before. I wanted a sundress with elastic at the chest to give a ruffled effect at the neckline with straps that tie at the shoulders. This is a little more feminine and full. 

Possible Variation:  
This one could be made halter style with one long strap on the right and one long strap on the left that tie behind the dolls neck.

Style 4


Here is a picture of how the tie at the shoulders. They could be left tied if the child couldn't tie a tight bow. The arm would be slid in because the dress fully opens in the back with velcro.



Finally, at my 5th, and final hour of sewing, I decided to try one more style and tried the peasant style bodice with gathered skirt.

Style 5


I realized that these could be embellished with lace, ribbon, bows....etc., but I don't want to complicate things when I am just making them for demonstration purposes only.

I could have been sewing examples forever but needed to get to work on my Easter Dress Collection for my Cabbage Patch Dolls.

Ebay / Etsy / Amazon Handmade

I started selling on Ebay on January 31,2002. The first thing I made was an embroidered patriotic star denim jacket. I wish I still had a picture of that! I decided that if it sold, I would list two more things. it sold right away! I started I was sewing two things for every one thing that I sold. Everything was handmade by me. Snowsuits were my top seller that year. Soon, I had an e-bay store. I was busy for many years. I started slowing down when I had to start saying "18 doll clothes" instead of using the brand of the doll that I was selling for. I believe that hurt my business because when people would search by brand name, they would not find me. The difficult thing was other people selling handmade clothes were still using the brand name (and still do) while I had my listings pulled. This year, things slowed down so much that I was paying more for fees then I was selling. It is sad to say but I finally decided to shut down my store. -----------------...

Cabbage Patch Snacktime Kid Outfit- Special Order

One Saturday night, several weeks back, I received a request for a Snacktime Kid outfit. I had never heard of that particular doll so posted on the 'Cabbage Patch Kids Buy, Sell & Trade' Group. In the meantime, I googled it and found that it was a doll that had been recalled in 1997. Evidently, not everyone returned their dolls. This doll eats plastic food and goes through her into a backpack through a hole in her back. I was awake most of the night trying to figure out how to sew this. How will I make it when I don't have the doll? Do I make a slit in the back of the outfit or somehow sew an actual hole? The next day, my customer said she wanted a Robot Snowsuit. I figured this is the one she had seen on Amazon Handmade. The one I had made was for a boy doll. I found out that her little boy had her old 16" girl doll and carried it around so I think she wanted something more 'boyish'.  I pulled out the fabric to make sure I had enough. I had ...
