This is a written pattern for a Strawberry Shortcake or a Ladybug outfit, including the a-line mid-tigh dress, the puffy hat and a choice of two lengths for leggings. Your doll will be ready for Halloween fun! And by changing the colors or omitting the colorwork, this dress can be turned into an every day dress as well!

Instructions are given for 13 to 14.5 inches dolls, and for both the Strawberry and the Ladybug style. With a little twist, you can change that dress to create most of the Strawberry Shortcake friends outfits (see project pages notes).

The pattern was worked for Les Chéries® and Hearts for Hearts® dolls, but should also fit the new popular 14.5 inches dolls.
