A Learn To Sew Project - A Doll Dress
My oldest daughter is nearly 10 and is learning to sew. I've found it daunting to try to teach her the basics and then find projects that are fun and interesting for her but don't frustrate the heck out of both of us. This little dress worked out well. She was able to make it with minimal help from me.
We followed a Pillowcase Dress with Ribbon Trim for 18" Doll Tutorial by Leigh Laurel Studios. There's a very simple downloadable pattern and the instructions are very clear and easy to follow.
This is definitely something to keep in mind next time we need a birthday gift for a friend.
