Some photos of a couple of my American Girl Dolls today and some clothing I have been making him.
Now I blame the Sasha group for me having the AG dolls. I didn't really like them when I first saw them but decided to get one so I could make some clothes for them and well they have rather grown on me.
I wanted to make some mix and match outfits for a couple of my girls. One is a blonde with freckles and blue eyes (Kit) and the other is a red head with freckles and green eyes (JLY37)...yet to be named.
I was given some great fabric from a friend of my in Germany when I visited her last year and had just enough fabric to make two pairs of capri pants and two simple tops.
I got rather carried away with the picture taking as the last few days have been so lovely.
Second pair of capri pants.

The other day I sat in the garden and did some knitting working on a great pattern by Debonair Designs called Cabana.
I just love Deb's patterns they are so clear and easy to follow.
This morning I made Deb's Bohoh bag to go with the outfit, using a contrasting button to bring in the colours of some of the outfits in the 'Mix n Match' set I am making.
Enjoying the garden
I also did a bit of sewing this afternoon and finished the second top.
The girls enjoying the garden wearing their new outfits.
I'm looking forward to the June KAL (Knit a long) in the American Girl Knitters Group on Ravelry to make some more little outfits to compliment these that I have made so far.
I seem to be getting rather a list of things I need/want to be making!
What great outfits for AG dolls! Love the fabrics and your knitted top and bag. Nice work!
