Doll Clothes Makeover

One of my latest finds is Sofia who is

a Baby so Beautiful by Playmates.

She was dressed in this denim overall and red gingham top.

Nothing to write home about, SO

I decided they needed a makeover!

Denim overall, pretty ordinary.

AND, here it is now.

 

 I added this big bib pocket in pink gingham, and a smaller 

pocket on the right front.

I added rick-rack over the straps and along the waistband.

Some buttons and a ribbon rose,

I had this unfinished tee-shirt lying around and decided it would 

make a cute baby top, I just added a little pink ribbon on the collar.

And a flower on the bum.

The red gingham top was really sad.

Again, nothing special, but this one really made me think.

What can I do with THIS?

This is what I came up with.

 I decided to make a dress out of it, but I really 

had a hard time finding the right fabrics.

 There was lace around the collar and around the sleeves, 

but the collar needed something to pull it together with the new skirt.

 I used the collar from the AG Molly pattern.

It made a nice wide peter pan collar for this dress.

I put new elastic in the sleeves and added a spotted

red button. The lace on the sleeves will need replacing, but it's ok for now. 

I am quite pleased with the results of both these new outfits.
