Pioneer Dresses

My DD will be turning 6 @ the end of the month and I was wondering if anyone knew of websites that sold pioneer style dresses [like Little House on the Prairie]. We gave her the Kirsten doll from American Girl [the pioneer girl from Sweden] for Christmas and we'd like to get her and her doll matching outfits.

So- crossing my fingers and hoping that some of you ladies have some connections!

Do you know anyone that sews?

That would be your best bet. Those style dresses aren't typically hard to sew at all (I'm thinking early Laura, right?).

Patterns for these kinds of dresses can still be found at fabric stores. I picked one up for my girl last year. She'll turn seven next month and we're planning a Laura Ingalls party. Have any ideas that might help?
