  5. About how big is the finished bassinet pattern? I was going to make this as a Christmas gift for my niece and she has a wide range of different size dolls, the biggest being about the size of a real newborn baby. Thanks.

  6. Hi Megan, I measured the bassinet and it is about 18.5 inches on the inside. So for a doll the size of a newborn baby, you woul have to make the bassinet a bit longer...

  10. There is a little girls on the right side of this page with a green top or dress on. I love the way it is sewn on the bodice. Did you make that or do you have a larger picture so I can get an idea of how to make my own pattern to sew it? Love all your ideas. Thanks!

    1. You're probably referring to the button for La Inglesita, a Spanish sewing blog? I think she used this Oliver + s pattern: http://oliverands.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=SRCH. Thank you for the nice comments!
