Sewing Guidelines Read all instructions closely before sewing. Wash and press fabrics before beginning project to avoid shrinkage. Use a 3/8" seam allowance on all seams unless otherwise stated. Make sure to finish all your raw edges with zig-zag stitches, serge or by pinking them.
Fabric Requirements Simple knit fabric scraps should work well for all of these projects. Make sure when cutting out pattern that the stretch of the fabric is horizontal otherwise the pattern will not fit around your baby doll.
Printing Instructions Print at 100% . Match each of the numbers and letters and then tape pattern pieces together carefully. There is a 2" x 2" box to help you check your printing.

Bodysuit/Tshirt/Dress Instructions Take your two sleeve pieces. Fold the straight edge up 3/8" up towards the wrong side. Using a zig-zag stitch or stretch stitch, hem the sleeves.
Step 2 Take your top front and one of your neckband pieces. Fold the neckband in half lengthwise. Pin the neckband across the neck on the top. Using a zigzag or overlock stitch, attach the neckband to the top. Repeat with back piece. Step 3 Overlap the back piece over the front piece at the shoulders about 1/2". Add a basting stitch at the armhole to keep the pieces in place.

Step 4 With right sides together (RST), pin the sleeve around the armhole. Stitch in place. Repeat with opposite side.
Step 5 With RST, place front and back of top together. Stitch down the side seam. Repeat with opposite side. Continue to Step 6 for dress or t-shirt. Skip to Step 8 for bodysuit.
Step 6 Fold the hem of the dress or tshirt towards the wrong side 3/8". Stitch around the hem.

Step 7 Take the leg band piece and fold it in half, matching short sides. Stitch across the short sides. Now you should have a circle. Fold the band in half with wrong sides together.
Step 8 Carefully stretch the legband around the hem of the bodysuit. Pin as you go, stretching slightly. Stitch the legband to the bodysuit. You should stretch the band slightly as you sew so that the band will fit on the bodysuit.
Step 9 Press legband. If you'd like to use a double needle to topstitch around the band, do so now. Finally, add a snap or velcro at the bottom of the bodysuit so it will stay closed.

Step 10: Leggings Place pant pieces with RST. Stitch curved crotch lines together. Mark the back of your pants/shorts. I use 2 pins to make the back, but you can also use a fabric pen and write CB. This will ensure you don't forget which side is the back. Step 11 Open inseam and place the front and back with RST. Stitch across inseam.
Step 12 Hem the bottom of the pants by folding the raw edge towards the inside of the pants 1/2". Using your double needle, stretch stitch or zig-zag stitch, stitch around the hem of the pants.

Step 13 Fold the waistband in half widthwise, matching the short sides. Stitch across the short side. Fold the waistband in half with wrong sides together.
Step 14 Place waistband over the leggings matching raw edges. Pin in place. Stitch around the waistband at the raw edge.
Step 15 Press the waistband up. Topstitch along the pant and the band. Congratulations! You are done.
