This week I’m going to share my free pattern for making the skirt shown above. This skirt is too small for some 18-inch dolls like American Girl, Madame Alexander, and similar-sized dolls, but it fits the 18-inch BFC Ink dolls perfectly (see image above).

It will also fit the vintage Crissy dolls from the Ideal Toy Corporation:

Here are all the free printable sewing patterns for making the skirt shown above:
