Andrea Dress by Sally Robertson
Peach Broadcloth, Orange Flowers

The skirt has been shortened in this smocked dress.

Any fabric that is not too heavy can be successfully used in a smocked dress. The peach dress above is made from a polyester blend fabric. While it is not my first choice of fabrics, it has some advantages when you are making the smocked dress for a child. Little girls often wad their doll clothes up and either throw them on the floor or stuff them in little containers. If you want the garment to continue to look as though it has been pressed, this is the perfect fabric!

The model wearing the smocked dress is a "Dress Me Doll"© from The Martha Pullen Company.

This smocked dress pattern fits 18" dolls (those with vinyl head, arms and legs and a cloth stuffed body) such as The American Girls Collection® by the Pleasant Company, Götz Dolls® (non-designer) and many others. The dress pattern is actually designed to fit The American Girls Collection®, Götz Dolls® (non-designer) and Dress Me Dolls© from The Martha Pullen Company (these dolls are the same size). The pattern will also fit the following dolls quite well: Faithful Friends Collection®, Tolly Girl®, Liberty Landing®, Girls on the Go®, Savannah of Storybook Heirlooms™, Laura Ashley®, Collector's Lane®, Creative Doll Company®, Springfield Collection®, Sophia's Heritage Collection®, Autumn Harvest™, Our Generation™ and miscellaneous composition and porcelain dolls. Since some dolls, such as Liberty Landing®, Tolly Girl®, Autumn Harvest™ and Our Generation™, are a little thinner, you may want to check the size of your doll and adjust the smocked dress pattern slightly for a better fit.

Infinite Freedom and Sally Robertson are not associated with any of the above named dolls or companies in any way.
