Today’s doll clothes will fit a wide variety of tiny dolls, but for today’s blog post, I want to focus on the six inch Disney Princess dolls in particular. I have a 6 inch Elsa doll, which I’m using as a model in the picture above, but I first designed these doll clothes to fit the little Mini American Girl six inch dolls (scroll down to see those images), at the request of a faithful follower named Jeretta.

I found my Elsa doll at a second hand store, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that she can easily swap clothes with the little 6 in. American Girl dolls. The underpants pictured above are a bit too big for my Elsa doll though, but I was able to make an alteration to the original panties pattern, and that worked just fine.
To make your 6 inch Disney Princess doll a T-shirt, you’ll need a little swatch of jersey fabric and a couple of size 4/0 snaps. To make her skirt, you’ll need some cotton and a bit of 1/8 inch wide elastic.

- American Girl Mini dolls (6 inch/16 cm)
- Bratz dolls (8.25 to 9.75 inches/21 to 25 cm, depending on shoe size)
