I'm looking for free doll clothing patterns for an 18 inch "american girl
like" doll.
My daughter would like me to make a few things for her.
Thanks,

I don't know about free, but you can get 99c patterns from JoAnn's
when they have a sale. All the major pattern companies seem to have
several doll clothes patterns available. JoAnn's often has a 40%
coupon also, but the pattern sale is cheaper. Sometimes the price is
$1.99 or $3.99 for Vogue. Sign up for the newsletter.
Or you could try making your own based on the clothes you already
have.
Try googling "free doll clothes patterns". I found a few -- one for a
kimono. All you really need is one to get started -- just change the
fabric and trim for variety.
Good luck.

Thank you,
Yesterday I found several books at the library for 18 inch dolls.
I don't know why I didn't think to look there first.

In your original message, you said you wanted patterns for
"18
inch "american girl like" doll". Be aware that true
American Girls doll's body shape is quite a bit different
from that of 18" "baby dolls". If you have access to the
doll you are sewing for, take a lot of measurements and
check them against the pattern pieces.

Thank you for the heads up. As I was looking at the pattern pcs I did
notice. I do think I'll be able to still use the patterns.
My daughter does have an American Girl doll, the reason I said American Girl
like is because the real American Girl patterns cost too much for my budget.
