American Girl clothing is too wide for a BJD. You may find an occasional usable piece like a stretch waist skirt, scarves, etc. The furniture for American girl often looks too big for a 16/17″ BJD and sometimes the seats of chairs and couches are too close to the ground (because AG’s knees don’t bend, they make those sit low). Also often AG furniture is too clunky looking. However some pieces of the furniture work fine, especially more delicate stuff like some of the real American Girl wood pieces. If you can find a store with American Girl furniture, bring your doll to see how the furniture fits. Then personally, I buy the furniture cheaper on Ebay. I got a nice AG computer/drafting table and chair on Ebay that fits my 42cm BJD perfectly. And there are some fairly delicate looking beds I’ve seen on Ebay too. The beds are a bit long and wide but OK.For my BJDs I bought chairs on Ebay. I look for chairs 9-10 inches tall, not too clunky and with high enough-looking seats. I have found wood and wicker chairs.One of the chairs I found on Ebay:http://www.thedollpage.com/photopost/data/7623/820Roxie1.jpg

If there is even a slight chance that the purchaser may wash the clothing items, you should do so first. Iron them and add a little spray starch, if you like, once they’re dry. Do wash them, though.Think of it as simple and inexpensive “reputation insurance.”

If you live near a fabric store like Hancock’s or Joann’s, you might want to check out their patterns. They usually carry lots of patterns for AG dolls and frequently have sales where you can buy patterns for $1 or $2. If not, check out Simplicity,or McCall websites – they have pictures of patterns that fit AG dolls. If you make your own patterns you can get tons of ideas from these pictures. For instance you can make dresses with a Renaissance, Prairie, 50′s or retro look…well just about anything imaginable…even Halloween costumes, wedding or formal wear and not to overlook sports clothes. Those AG type dolls must be the best dressed dolls in town!If you’re new to sewing, you might want to start out with something easy like some pajamas or nightgowns; then on to some play clothes. They even have a pattern to make a toy dog for AG type dolls!And if you’re sewing for your little girl’s doll, you might want to make some look-alike clothes for her as well!Happy sewing and doll dressing!

I love doing miniature anything! You can make the cutest little ‘lederhosen’ (the leather shorts with suspenders) out of tan felt. Use fabric paint to make dots to represent the little design on the band that goes across the chest between the two suspender straps. Put a green dot on either side of a red dot, the draw the green dots out sideways with a toothpick. It’ll look like a floral patttern. Make him a little white shirt and felt hat, too, if you have time. Go to Google images and look for “lederhosen” or “Oktoberfest” or “Tyrolean” or even “German dolls.” Black and white felt will make cute socks and shoes.For the girl doll, make a white blouse and a bright-colored jumper with a poofy full skirt. Decorate the edge of the skirt and across the chest with your fabric paint. Use yellow yarn to give her blond braids. Again, Google images can help. You can also type in “traditional German costume” if the other three suggestions don’t give you the picture you need.

I use Sears Kenmore Sergers. I have 3 of them, all range in the 250-350 range. Of course I’m a professional and sewing daily – sometimes 16 hours.The problem for you might be the doll clothes. The presserfoot on the sergers are a bit larger and you may be unable to manuever the fabric in curved areas. Buy a 3 or 4 thread serger – meaning that you can use 3 threads to sew a seam – these are a bit norrower than the 4 thread seam. If yoou have any questions feel free to contact me.
