Grandchildren's orders

Good Morning, Last summer I started knitting doll clothes for my granddaughter, Payton's American Girl dolls. What fun! She also has a Bitty Baby and now my other granddaughter, Sydney, has one too. So Sweater, dresses, skirts, afghans, jackets and accessories are the order for the day. Even my grandson, Jackson, has gotten into the act. He has a Bitty Twin boy and when he saw the girls getting clothes for their dolls, he timidly asked if I would make his doll a shirt. Of course, that would be sewing so back to the sewing machine.

Jackson is really into the Super Heroes and music so the first thing I did was to embroider a little shirt I had in stock with his favorite guitar. Then off to the fabric store to see what I could find for Super Heroes. I was surprised to find quite a lot but not too many with prints small enough for the little shirt. Found 1 that worked if I placed the pattern pieces just so. He was so pleased he gave me another order.
