Create the beautiful Bluebell heirloom dress for your handmade dolls! This printable PDF pattern features a mutton sleeve dress with an empire waist designed exclusively to fit Meredith the Cloth Doll, an original Jayne Stitches design. It’s ideal for dollmakers who love heirloom-style sewing with a modern twist, we sew this one on our sewing machines (though for real purists you could sew by hand).
