This site will showcase my creations for Chatty Cathy. She has lived with me since Christmas 1959.
In December 2007, I dusted off the machine and began sewing again after the passing of several decades. It is a pleasure to make her outfits - she never complains during the fittings, she doesn't grumble when the lace trim scratches, and she doesn’t fret when outfits aren’t totally trimmed out like they could be, or how Granny made them years ago.
UPDATE!
In February 2008, my loving sister gave me two American Girl Dolls, Mia and Nellie! Now Chatty shares her clothes with her "cousins" and, so far, they are getting along nicely!
Chatty's Valentine's Day Dress is made out of rayon fabric. The heart embroidery ribbon is from Granny's stash and makes it extra special! Delicate lace trims the sleeve hem and a larger band of lace tops the A-line skirt.
