Year of the American Girl Giveaway

While browsing Google Plus (which by the way, completely confuses me, but seems fun) a few weeks ago I happened to run across a contributor request for a huge giveaway.  I guess it intrigued me because I entered even though I did not have an American Girl doll nor have I ever made American Girl Doll clothing. My thoughts were that it would be pretty easy.  The clothes are so tiny I thought I could sew the dress up pretty quick.  Well I was kinda wrong because I think the tiny dress took just as long as a big girl dress but it was pretty fun : ), and I will certainly be making more!

The giveaway is really kinda amazing and really kinda huge!  The lucky winner will receive an 18"doll outfit for every occasion that happens within a year.  My entry of course is
an Easter dress.  Wow is what I would have to say about all of the other adorable little outfits and accessories.  There are really some cute items in this giveaway!
Here are a few pics of mine, but keep scrolling because I have that giveaway at the bottom!

I hand embroidered a little bunny on the skirt I found the graphic in the Doodle Stitching book.

Taking pictures of this doll was very difficult!  Mila ran away with her every time I sat her down : ).
