Blank 18 inch doll dress for embroidery: long sleeve with a ruffle hem, 6+ oz combed cotton interlock, velcro back, and 13 colors in a single doll size.
The velcro back is what makes this a decorating blank rather than a doll outfit. It opens the full length of the dress, so all 13 colorways hoop the same way: the front panel lies completely flat — no fighting a closed tube the way you would on a sewn doll garment. Hoop the dress open, stitch the front, close it after.
One size, cut to fit a standard 18 inch doll:
- Fits the 18 inch play dolls most customers own, American Girl included
- Long sleeve with a ruffle at the hem
- Same 6+ oz combed cotton interlock as our kids' garments, so a design digitized for a child's tee scales down to the doll without redrawing the stitch type
13 colors is the widest run on any doll blank we stock, and the reason is matching sets: a customer who wants the doll dress in the same color as the child's dress needs the color to exist on both. White and Ivory carry classic monograms, Red and Kelly Green cover Christmas, Orange and Brown handle fall, Hot Pink and Purple are the everyday girl colors, and Lime Green, Ice Blue, Peacock, Navy Blue and Black fill in the rest.
The doll puff sleeve ruffle dress is the warm-weather version in 6 colors, and the doll long sleeved ruffle tee is the separate. For the matching child's piece, see the girls long sleeve ruffle tee. No minimums, no Tax ID required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What length are the dresses?
Our empire waist dresses are knee-length with a ruffle hem. The high waistline gives you a generous chest area for embroidery, monograms, or applique.
Can I embroider on the skirt portion?
While the chest area is ideal for hooping, some crafters do embroider on the skirt. The 6+ oz interlock fabric holds stitches well throughout the garment.
