1975 Sunshine family Dolls Sewing Pattern - McCall's number 4716 .

REPOST FROM MY SISTER BLOG:  " Herbie's World of Kitsch & Toys ".


Since writing about this item on my "Wishlist" on 31st October 2012, I've seen it come up a few times on ebay, but I wasn't so keen on buying photocopies or paying for scanned jpgs to be sent to my email, so I kept looking...



The 72 piece pattern contains everything you need to complete each of the outfits shown in a diagram on the left side of the packet:

For male Dolls: Jacket, Vest, Shirt, Overalls, Pants, Kerchief.

For female Dolls: Jumper, Skirt, Blouse, Apron, Shawl, Cape.

For Baby: Diaper, Bunting.

I still haven't found a physical copy of it yet, but I found the next best thing - an uploaded pattern, and not only that it was free, so I decided I'd share it here for anyone who is also looking for this pattern and having a humdinger of a time finding it, so here goes:


















































































































As I stated before, this pattern makes items which will fit the following vintage dolls - remember it was produced in 1975, so it will only fit certain body shapes, anyhoo, the dolls it will fit are:

Barbie.
Ken.
GI Joe.
Sunshine Family.
Wild Bill Hickock.
Jesse James.
Bill Coey.
Cochise.
Wyatt Earp.
Davy Crockett.
Midge.
Maddie Mod.
Stacey.
Taylor.
Tammy.
Christy.
Casey.
Francie.
Prairie Country Western.
Cricket.
Skipper.
Bonnie Breck.
and other Fashion Dolls.

I haven't had a chance to print out and try these patterns yet, so I think I should warn you you may need to resize them when you do so...

You can download as a zip file Here

Enjoy!
