This is a free, printable sewing pattern that you can print on computer paper, cut out, and sew to fit an 8" baby doll, like the Lil Cutesies dolls made by JC Toys. It will fit most 8 inch baby dolls. These doll clothes patterns are free at ChellyWood.com which offers them for download with a creative commons attribution watermark. This particular baby doll pattern is the first of two. The second pattern includes the sleeve for this baby doll dress and a free printable baby doll diaper pattern too. This pattern, in addition to the doll dress, also offers a "slipper" or shoe for 8-inch baby dolls among its pattern pieces, along with the bodice and skirt patterns to fit 8 inch baby dolls.
