Doll Carrier

18-inch doll carrier by nest full of eggs
 Another item to cross off my list for the Little Things to Sew: Cover to Cover Challenge which is going on right now over at Bartacks and Singletack until August 31st, 2014.

This doll carrier is such a great little sewing project, the results are wonderful. I really don't know why I didn't sew this one up sooner. I think this is my 2nd favorite project from the book (after the art smock). It is the perfect size for an 18-inch doll.

Project details
Pattern: Bear Carrier (difficulty level 2 out of 4 scissors) from the Little Things to Sew book
Fits: stuffed animals or dolls 9 - 18 inches tall (can be worn by children aged 3 - 8)
Fabrics: light pink twill, straps in beige twill, in place of quilting batting I used white fleece
Notions: 2 buttons, Velcro

Note to self: the items I have completed so far from the book: tutu, mittens, 4 art smocks (1, 2, 3&4), and 2 tea party doll dresses.

It's beautiful, Rachel! And your daughter looks so happy with it! I've been meaning to sew a doll carrier myself too, but Norah never ever plays with her dolls - she's a cars girl... I'm really happy with that, except when I see projects like yours!

This is awesome! My daughter would love one. Oh, and I love seeing the bed in your pretty purple room again!

Love your doll carrier!
I also love the idea of working through a craft book and making all of the projects!
There are far too many craft books on my shelf that I have been keeping around as inspiration and haven't made a single thing from.
I can't wait to see more!

You did a great job on this doll carrier, and it fits the doll really well.
