I didn&#8217;t make her own dress for the occasion as I&#160;had done for her sister 4 years ago but I made a matching dress for her new American Girl doll Molly.

Although, this year the weather didn&#8217;t oblige and it was very warm (+15C!), wet and windy! I made a special 1960s outfit for Sam for this trip. [&#8230;]]]></description>

So, hopefully, I will have some Christmassy photos once [&#8230;]]]></description>
