African American Wellie Wishers doll, Kendall, poses in front of a handmade quilt dotted with applique hearts on a white background, framed in purple floral print. Each quilted heart is made of purple floral fabric. Little Kendall, the Wellie Wisher doll, models her handmade doll clothes, which include a sleeveless shirt made of pink felt with a matching pink elastic-waist "schoolgirl skirt" that's made of identical pink seersucker fabric dotted with tiny white polka dots. The doll's handmade shoes are a sandal made of craft foam and pink ribbons.

This pattern has been available on my website since 2018, but my links needed some updating. I’m re-posting it specifically for the Wellie Wisher dolls, but it does fit a large number of dolls in addition to the Wellie Wishers from American Girl.

(Take a look through the first set of bullets to see what I mean.)

To make the little top, you’ll need some craft felt and size 1/0 or 2/0 snaps. It’s also possible to add a few tiny buttons down the front of the shirt, just for looks.

To make the skirt, you can use seersucker fabric (like my pink polka dot skirt) or you can use cotton fabric. It doesn’t take much, so look through your scraps to see what you’ve already got. You’ll also need some 1/4 inch wide elastic for the waist of the skirt.

The Baby Alive dolls are produced and marketed by Hasbro, who owns the trademark rights to them (™). Please visit Hasbro’s Baby Alive page to learn more about the dolls, or visit the Hasbro company website to learn more about the company itself.

The Disney Princess Toddler dolls are products offered by the Disney corporation, which holds the trademark for them (™). Please visit the Disney Toys website to learn more about their company and its trademarked toys.

The Hearts for Hearts Girls, Dolls and Games are owned by the Playmates Company International, which holds the registered trademark for these toys.

The Wellie Wishers and the 18 inch American Girl dolls mentioned in this blog post are products offered by Mattel, which holds the registered trademark for them (™). Please visit the Mattel Toys website to learn more about their company and its trademarked toys.

Little Miss Matched dolls* were a product of the Tonner brand of toys. At the time of this publication, to the best of my knowledge, the Tonner company (although no longer producing dolls) still holds the trademark rights to them (™). You can learn more about Robert Tonner’s brand of dolls on Wikipedia or by googling the dolls by name (i.e. “Little Miss Matched — dolls”). Robert Tonner has been known to speak at, and even sell dolls at doll shows, from time to time, but to the best of my knowledge, his company no longer produces dolls.

The Crissy family of dolls which includes dolls like vintage Crissy, Velvet, and other dolls, were produced by the Ideal Toy Corporation, which held the registered trademark for them. That company is no longer producing the dolls, and at the time of this blog post, it looks like Mattel currently owns the trademark for Crissy (although to my knowledge, they are not producing them). If you wish to purchase one of these dolls, you can sometimes find them used, in good condition, on eBay (see link in the first set of bullets).

MGA Entertainment is the company that produced the BFC Ink dolls, and it still holds the trademark rights to them (™). The BFC Ink dolls (aka Best Friends Club dolls) were in production, starting in 2009, but at the time of this blog post, they are no longer available in stores. You may be able to find a used one on eBay, though, if you’re thinking about collecting them (see link in the first set of bullets). These dolls can swap clothes with Crissy dolls, but their bodies are much more articulated. They have very lovely faces.
