I've just used the infant patterns and then graded them a size or two smaller, and in some cases no adjustment has been needed. So I would think that if you have baby patterns you may be able to adjust them fairly easy. I have also found some cute cloths by searching for "free doll patterns". There are a ton of them out there, any size doll you have. have fun! I have been making my daughter clothes for her animals and dolls using my ottobre (ottobredesign.com) magazine.

Have to dig up my copy, but I'm pretty sure it has everything from clothes to cradle and accessories. The Purl Bee and Martha Stewart (http://www.marthastewart.com/making-dolls-with-laura) online have some adaptable doll and clothing patterns. Older Mon Tricot, McCall's soft toy booklets have great stuff too, I got them on eBay for less than $5 USD including shipping. Another book that is very comprehensive:

I ended up finding a used one online. I don't have it in front of me, but it had a way of making a cradle from a basket - and basic clothing and underwear - mostly for the Waldorf-style dolls. Also has the doll pattern. check your library for a book by Valeria Ferrari
