Later I discovered that the snaps didn't work. That is probably why there were on the street for sale. I tried to fix it by sewing snaps in there but the snaps didn't hold. They became a pair of overalls that she couldn't wear.
I decided to try something. I cut the legs off just above the snaps.
And then I made a nice full, a bit too full, of a ruffle out of some fabric that I had. It was actually a fat quarter. I made a jumper for her. I feel better that I was able to make something that she will wear and something that she actually needs.
Ignore the head it always seems to be tilted in pictures. She doesn't go around with her head titled but does that just for pictures. Oh, ignore the tights as well. I wasn't going to take those off when she tried it on.

Cool idea. I love the tights - they are cheery.
Beth, She looks absolutely THRILLED to model for you!
Oh and the tights we aren't supposed to notice, they remind me of the ones the Wicked Witch of the West's sister had on when Dorothy's house fell on her!!!

(And I think the tights are A HOOT with it. That kind of thing is all the rage, you know! LOL.)
