Dress Pattern with Video for American Girl Dolls

Advanced Sewing Class: Neapolitan Dress Pattern for American Girl Dolls All Things with Purpose Sarah Lemp 2

Dress Pattern with Video

We had so much fun putting this video together to highlight some advanced sewing skills! Julia created an 18″ American Girl Doll dress pattern inspired by this beautiful, Neapolitan dress pictured above, and we’d love to have you sew it with us.

In this ADVANCED SEWING CLASS, you will learn:

  • The art of pressing seams
  • Stitching in the ditch to create a professional-looking neckline
  • Gathering a skirt
  • Creating a beautiful lining so the inside of the dress looks as good as the outside
  • Attaching a Velcro closure
  • Clipping the curve and trimming seams
  • Hemming
  • And more!

Julia and her mom worked skillfully at creating this adorable dress for her daughter. Down to every last stitch, the detail on it is exquisite. From the waffle cone-inspired needlework along the waist to the tulip sleeves and beautifully lined inside, it is a true couture, heirloom quality garment.

    I cannot get from Neopolitan dress to archives in order to print the pattern. I receive
    your e-mails but again, I sign in and click submit and it takes me back to sign-in.
    What can I do to print the patterns?
