Doll Dresses Galore

Don't you love how, once people know you sew, you are gifted miscellaneous sewing supplies?

Such is the case of the doll dresses. My mother-in-law's best friend called me recently explaining how her pack-rat neighbor had passed away and the daughter was cleaning out the house (since October). They had found some boxes of homemade doll dresses and bloomers and some partially-made pinafores. Was I interested? Sure. Why not? I thought.


They arrived last night. Holy. Moly. I have no idea how many are there, but there are a ton. Two full boxes of dresses and bloomers. One box of dresses, bloomers, un-finished pinafores, a vintage sewing book, threads, needles, ribbons, vintage scissors. You name it. It's probably in there.

Once I sort through them (not sure what size they are) save some for Spenser, my nieces and a few friends, there may be a giveaway. Anyone interested?

I love this mushroom fabric dress. So fun. Too bad it won't fit Spenser.

The Fat Quarter Challenge's extension has now passed. Today we will be drawing a winner. Stay tuned.

Wow, there are so many. My girls would be having a field day with those boxes. Ackk, I could imagine my house, but I wouldn't care. Sure, I'd love to enter that giveaway if you had one.

You could also always just use them for fabric.
