When I was a child my mother sewed clothes for our Vogue Ginny Dolls one Christmas. Mom was not a sewer and didn't even have a sewing machine. She would wait until we went to bed at night and then sit and sew. A neighbor showed her how to lay out the patterns on the fabric and Mom took it from there. I've found that the outfits usually fit the slightly larger modern Ginny Dolls better than the vintage ones. I think the pattern companies made the outfits a little larger so they would be easier for children to dress and undress their dolls. This is one of the outfits Mom made.
In this picture you can see the tiny hand stitches.
