L&P Pattern 1010: Army Combat Uniform Bundle is one of our most exquisitely detailed patterns, and it meant a lot to us to get those details right.

From the perfect lie-flat collar on the t-shirt, to the angled pockets, detachable patches and back bellows on the jacket, to the cargo pockets, drawstring bottoms and belt loops on the pants and to a helmet cover that you can make or adapt to fit a wide range of doll sport helmets as the perfect finishing touch, everything here is based on a real-life Army uniform.

We've included easy-to-follow directions for historical techniques like hand-bound eyelets, spiral lacing and skirt gore insertion, as well as simpler directions for easier garb and fantasy inspired outfits.

We've also included an in-depth, illustrated section on the history of the period and people, and the garments, fibers, colors and embellishments they wore. For any historically-inclined or homeschooling family, this isn't just a sewing pattern — it's a hands-on study unit.

Check out the authentic construction and perfect fit of our man's shirt, which follows a formula of rectangle-cut and gusseted garments that dates back even before 1700.

It's easy to find the perfect fabric for this shirt: the same blues, whites, checks and stripes that are popular for men's shirts today were just as popular back in the era of pirates and patriots. Your nearest thrift shop should have plenty of wonderful, period-accurate options, ready for up-cycling!

We originally designed L&P Pattern 1943: Molly Waves Goodbye 1940s Ladies' Suit to honor American Girl® Molly McIntire on her retirement.

Pattern 1943 includes a sweet little fabric cap, trimmed with self-fabric bows, to go with the suit. But the 1940s saw so many wonderful hat styles that we just had to create a separate pattern for a more sophisticated hat with an assortment of ribbon, feather and fabric band trims as well.

Here it is Pattern 2021: Hollywood Hats The Glengarry Hat for 18 Inch Dolls.

MAKE GLORIOUS GIFTS with the Lee & Pearl HOLIDAY WISH BOOK and Lee & Pearl sewing patterns for dolls! Welcome American Girl doll Molly McIntire back with Pattern 2021: Hollywood Hats - Glengarry Hat for 18 Inch Dolls and Pattern 1943: Molly Waves Goodbye 1940s Ladies Suit for 18 Inch Dolls.

Moving on up to the 1960s, here's our most recent patternL&P 1964: Darling Doris Ladies' Suit for 18 Inch Dolls.

This pattern is our salute to sunny, sparkling '60s star Doris Day, and to all the stylish career gals of the era — like our Mom, who got married in a light blue suit very much like this one, that she made herself from a pattern!

In 1974, fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg debuted a line of simple jersey wrap dresses, and a new fashion star was born.

L&P Pattern 1031: Classic Wrap Dress and Peplum Top is our homage to those iconic and eternally stylish dresses.

Along with full-length and knee-length jersey versions, this pattern makes an adorable peplum top as well — using just one fat quarter of ordinary cotton fabric.

Best of all, none of the variations call for a single tricky snap, button, piece of elastic or hair-snagging Velcro™. All you need is fabric and thread!

Here's L&P Pattern 1006: Patrol Cap for 18 Inch Dolls — a straight-sided fabric cap with a rounded visor and flat top. It looks adorable made in anything from camo prints and khaki, to pretty cottons and tailored twills.

Here's a fun and unique style you won't find anywhere else — L&P 1007: Bush Hat or "Boonie" for 18 Inch Dolls. It's perfect for all the adventurous doll-lovers in your life!

Our Boonie's brim features innovative spiral topstitching and a neat bias tape edge. The crown is fully lined with separate, ever-so-slightly smaller lining patterns for a perfect fit. The adjustable chin strap is easy to make with purchased cord — or you can follow our directions to make your own twisted-strand cord out of embroidery floss.

Both the Patrol Cap and the Boonie have military uniform pedigrees, and look just as great made out of camo fabrics as they do out of cotton prints and twills.

Here's another favorite for girl and boy dolls — L&P 1008: Classic Ball Cap and Big Fat Trucker Hat for 18 Inch Dolls.

We made our ball cap the right way, with six panels for a molded fit, ventilating eyelets on each panel, a "squatchee" (matching fabric-covered button) at the top, and an optional vent at the back for the look of an adjustable cap.

And our trucker hat is the cutest thing ever with a stiffly-interfaced double panel in front begging to be decorated any way you choose, and mesh panels along the sides and back.

While we're on the subject of QUICK and EASY projects, nothing beats L&P 1032: Desert Sunrise Maxi Dress, Halter Top and Beaded Choker Pattern in bang for labor buck.

This pattern has only two pieces, one of which is a stabilizing internal yoke of ordinary cotton fabric. Here's your chance to sew out of your comfort zone with fluttery silkies and liquid smooth jerseys, while still enjoying the ease of pinning and stitching to the cotton yoke that holds everything invisibly together.

They'll think you slaved for hours over this one. Why tell them otherwise?

For the doll lover who wants to mix-and-match her own looks, make wardrobe essentials with Lee & Pearl basics patterns!

Start with L&P 1001: Unisex T-Shirts for 18 Inch Dolls. This pattern came about after our designer tried to find a relaxed fit, unisex T-shirt that could be used in a layered outfit. Every unfitted tee she tried also featured unfitted sleeves that bunched up and got in the way of jackets or other outer garments. Our designer knew she could do better...

The result is this pattern: uniquely drafted to produce sleeves that fit snugly all the way up to a narrow armhole — ideal for layering under anything you please.

MAKE GLORIOUS GIFTS with the Lee & Pearl HOLIDAY WISH BOOK and Lee & Pearl sewing patterns for dolls! Here's the ultimate wardrobe essential, Pattern 1001: Unisex T-Shirts for 18 Inch Dolls -- like our American Girl doll and custom boy doll.

The cuffed shorts in L&P Pattern 1033: Bonjour, Paris and cargo shorts and chino pants in L&P 1004: Boy Style Pants and Cargo Shorts feature a clever solution to a different fitting problem — how to make doll shorts, pants and skirts that fit smoothly while the doll is standing, but don't get pulled down when the doll sits.

Our "No Crack Back" curved waistband solved that problem. Seriously, you have to try it!

We used the same "No Crack Back" for the pencil and denim skirts in L&P 1041: Slim Skirts for 18 Inch Dolls. We also developed an innovative construction method that keeps the skirt flat — and super-easy to sew — until the very last step.

We love all three skirts in this pattern, especially this trendy little pencil skirt with an asymmetric front panel that looks so much more complicated to make than it really is — because it's not complicated at all!
