Our latest American Girl craft was an idea from the American Girl Magazine. Valentine Mailboxes are super easy and fun to make. They really could be used all year round, not just at Valentine’s.

Both of my girls wanted a bed for their dolls. We didn’t want to spend the money for an official AG bed, so we bought plain beds at IKEA. Each girl got to design her bed, which I painted for them. This is Snowflake’s Stenciled bed.

Our dolls are also Girl Scouts along with their big girls. Of course, they needed a uniform to wear to their meetings. For Christmas, I gave each of my girls’ a Girl Scout Uniform for her doll. It is a free pattern!

    My daughters ages 6 and 11 are continuously sewing clothes for their American Girl dolls and stuffed animals. I think they will love the pom-pom necklace. It’s awesome.

    The girl scout vest will not load on google. Is there a free 0ne piece vest pattern somewhere else?

      I’m not sure what the issue is for you. If you click on the picture of the vest that post should come up. I just tried it and it worked. Then look in the post for the link to Bear, Dolly & Moi. That will take you to the post on her site with the pattern. I hope that helps!

    SO MANY AMERICAN GIRL CRAFTS, SEWING & PARTIES–WOW! Where do I start? Sewing: reversible flared skirts, drawstring sundress, Chef Set, T-shirts, Girl Scout uniforms, etc. . . I’ve sewn AG doll clothes from several patterns for my 7 grandnieces and now 1 more will be 3 yrs old soon. Over the past 8 years I designed AG bedding sets, quilts & matching pillow, sheet & matching pillow & plus for Bitty baby, same sets in baby fabrics with a cap for sleeping to match. All cotton wovens & percale designs & flannels were purchased at JoAnns on sale. Sarah Helene in Minneapolis

    OH, I forgot to add that for AG dolls, I used my imagination to crochet many one-of a kind purses, hats, scarves, shawls, skirt & vest sets, plus blankets & rugs. I designed them myself & gifted most to grandnieces, and friends’ who have granddaughters over the past 10 years. I had loads of FUN creating clothes & accessories using mostly scraped of thinner yarn, except for the rugs. I did use a couple dress, sundress, cardis & pullover sweater patterns I found on Ravelry website, FREE patterns. Sarah Helene in Minneapolis
