Thick cloth or too rough cloth which is easy to be frayed don't suit.
The doll will be happy if you dress her up in seasonable clothes, for example, in sheer cotton in summer and wool or velveteen in winter.
If using cloth with complicated pattern, I save a lace.

Cut cloth

1. Cut with 1/4" margin, but it needs 0.5" margin the opening of the back.
2. Skirt takes a yard in width 1/3 yard in length.
3. Frill of skirt is a yard × 3" by 2 sheets.
4. Collar is about 1.5" × 7" bias.

If it is thin cloth and you want it gorgeous, make the quantity (width) of the skirt and the frill duple.

Sew bodice and put collar

1. Sew up front and back at the shoulders.
2. Fold the opening of the back three. Not stitch yet.
3. Hem the both side of 20 inch length lace.
4. Make gathers on the lace.
5. Sew the lace and collar cloth to the neckline.
6. Roll neckline with collar cloth and stitch it at the inside. It seems to be a stand collar.

Set sleeves

1. Spread bodice, and sew the sleeve.
2. Stitch lace to the cuffs.
3. Fold the lace outside and stitch it.
4. Sew the side line of the bodice and sleeve.

Make the skirt

1. Sew the skirt, but leave 3 inches near the waist unseam.
2. Sew the frill in a ring which is 2 yard in length, and hem it.
3. Sew the lace in a ring as same as the frill.
4. Put the lace on the frill, and gather up together.
5. Sew the frill and lace to the skirt.
6. Gather the skirt at the waist and sew it to the bodice.
7. Stitch the overlapping of the back and sew snaps on.

It is cute that tie a ribbon in a bow at the waist.
