Sewing with QueenMomMe: DIY Leggings for 18″ American Girl Doll, Pattern by ArtsyFartsyMama

Season 1, Episode 3

I am so excited that Lindsay, better known as the Artsy Fartsy Mama, allowed me to try out her pattern for these adorable doll leggings. Thank you, Lindsay!

Check out her pattern (and awesome website) here: https://www.artsyfartsymama.com/2015/03/easy-18-inch-doll-leggings-tutorial.html

Her instructions and pattern are right on and easy to follow. And I love the idea of up-cycling worn out clothes into something useful and beautiful.

Now Princess the American Girl doll is all ready for school!

Stay Home and Play With Me: Masks for Barbie & Friends

The girls were playing Barbie/Disney Princess dolls recently. The dolls were having a big party in the Dream House to say goodbye before they had to “stay home forever because of Coronavirus.”

Whoa… some big stuff to unpack there.

I’ve been making masks to donate and of course the whole YouTube mask thing, so the girls asked me if I could make masks for their dolls, too. Sure. If some quick and easy masks are going to help them work through their emotions, then count me in!

I made the pattern (above) and the video (below)
