FREE Christmas Doll Dress Pattern!

 Hello! It's the season to be merry, and I'm sharing my joy with you by giving you this FREE downloadable pattern. This pattern is made for 18" dolls like American Girl, but it will also fit the 15" Bitty Baby dolls. Please note, this pattern is only for the dress. The hat is by American Girl.
 Here is the back of the dress. The samples were made out of non-stretch velvet (triple velvet).
 The weather cooperated and gave me some snow for these doll Christmas photos.
Of course the dress is based on my daughters' actual Christmas dresses. Although Anna's is finished, it has yet to be photographed. Guess what color Anna's dress is? The cute flowers on all the dresses are loosely based on this tutorial and used with permission: http://thelittletreasures.blogspot.com/2012/03/last-minute-gifts-organza-rose-tutorial.html (Thank you Maya!) And by the way, hers are much prettier. I gathered the edge of ribbon for these.

This is a fast, 3 pattern piece project! You have time to make it for Christmas. In fact, you can make it and enter to win some great prizes at ReannaLily Design's Small Sewn Gifts sewalong. (You could even win something from me!)

Fixed! Just go here to download: http://www.lilaclanepatterns.com/freepatterns.php
OK, to download the pattern, visit the pattern page at Lilac Lane Patterns. It is currently (on 12/10/2013) listed under the doll patterns but my web guy is moving it to the free patterns area, so be sure to check both places. Whoopsy! The pattern hasn't been quite uploaded yet. If you need it right now, leave a comment and make sure it has your e-mail in it. I'll e-mail the pattern to you.

Merry Christmas! Celebrating the birth of Christ.

For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

Love,
