About Me

Doll clothes became a part of my sewing regimen when my 5 daughters were wanting clothes for their dolls.  The clothing I purchased from the stores was falling apart faster than I could buy it.  The fabric was of poor quality and the seams were fraying and falling apart. So, of course, I purchased a few patterns and started sewing doll clothes.  I was hooked.  It was so much fun!  My girls had fun helping me design and plan outfits.  One day, I showed a neighbor the doll clothes I had made and she told me I should be selling them.  Thus, Dress My Doll Pretty was born. 

Sewing is in my blood.  My mom and all of my grandmothers were seamstresses.  I'm grateful to them for their continuing support, and specifically to my mom for never giving up on me even when I was so frustrated with it.  It is a skill that I have used many times in my adult life.
