Handmade clothes for collector dolls
Everything in my boutique is designed and sewn by me, from my own patterns, in my smoke-free and pet-free home studio. I choose every fabric myself — fine cottons, Liberty Tana Lawn, and antique textiles rescued from Victorian and Edwardian pieces that have already had one life and deserve another.
My heart belongs to Sasha. I sew for the 16" and 17" vintage dolls, for Sasha Toddler and Baby, and for Sasha Morgenthaler's own studio dolls. Fit is not an afterthought: these dolls have slim bodies and particular proportions, and a dress that hangs beautifully on one will not hang beautifully on another. Every pattern I use has been cut and re-cut against the doll it was made for.
Alongside Sasha you'll find pieces for Elisabeth Pongratz, Little Darling dolls by Dianna Effner, Kaye Wiggs, Meadow, Connie Lowe, and Ruby Red Fashion Friends. Choose your doll below and you'll see only what fits her.
What you'll find here
Everyday dresses — cotton, well cut, properly finished. No raw edges, neat hems, and hand-stitching where it matters.
Hand-smocked heirloom pieces — each bodice worked stitch by stitch over gathered pleats. A single smocked panel takes many hours, and no two are alike.
Antique-fabric pieces — dresses cut from genuine antique petticoats and christening gowns, keeping their original lace, pintucks and whitework.
Shoes and boots — a wide selection, mostly for Sasha, available while stocks last.
PDF sewing patterns and tutorials — for anyone who would like to make their own, with step-by-step instructions and video tutorials on my YouTube channel.
Free guides
I write guides for collectors and for anyone who sews — free to read, no sign-up, no catch. Do have a look:
The Sasha Doll Seller's Guide — what your doll is, what it's worth, and how to sell it well.
How to Choose Fabric for Doll Clothes — scale, weight and drape, and why they matter so much in miniature.
Sewing a Perfect Peter Pan Collar — how I get a crisp, even collar every time.
More are on the blog, and new pieces are added to the boutique regularly — so do check back often.
