Amy Bordelon replied to the discussion 'A-line dress' in the group Sewing For Children"Thank you Alanapr and Pam Pike. It is comforting to know people answer so quickly. I am worried size 8 would be too small though. I truly and stumped on this one :/"
Pam Pike replied to the discussion 'A-line dress' in the group Sewing For Children"The "Lucy" pattern by Children's Corner is a great A-Line pattern and I believe it goes up to the size range you need. It is the only A-Line pattern I use and I have made probably 50 or more of these."
Alanapr replied to the discussion 'A-line dress' in the group Sewing For Children"Check out New Look pattern 6504. It looks like the same dress in a larger size, and fits up to 50" tall."

A-line dress
I just finished making New Look 6576 A-line dress pattern. The sister would like one too. My problem is that I do not know where an A-line dress pattern is for older girls. She is 8 years old and tall. Could someone share where to buy an A-line dress pattern for some who is (i'm guessing here) a size 10-12? I do not know what to do or where to look. Thank you for helping me. AmySee More

Amy Bordelon replied to the discussion 'Double Seat Panties' in the group Sewing For Children"I found the pattern for the double seat panties from Ginger Snaps. I had to really study the pattern. I have to attach the lace now. Hmmm? This is a beautiful pattern if someone would like the panties to embroider or applique on."

Amy Bordelon added a discussion to the group Sewing For ChildrenDouble Seat Panties
I am looking for a pattern for double seat panties. I received a new sewing machine for Christmas. I receive so many people asking me to make these diaper covers. My favorite are the double seat panties so that I can embroider their names. Does anyone have an idea where I could get this pattern? Thank you so much. I do not know where else to look!
