If this pattern looks familiar, that’s because we saw it earlier, during the holiday season. It includes my Christmas stocking pattern and my elf hat pattern.

For this week’s retro throwback ensemble, though, I’m featuring this pattern because of its bell-bottom style (or boot cut style) jeans or pants. If you look back at yesterday’s post, you’ll see how cute those bell bottoms look on my Tall Barbie®, and you’ll also notice that a regular-sized fashion doll can also wear the pants/jeans, as long as she wears a pair of high heeled shoes or boots.

As I’ve said, this is a re-post of this pattern, and in fact, there’s an older version of this pattern (and its accompanying tutorial) right here, on ChellyWood.com. Just click on this link, and it will take you to my older tutorial. But if you’re patient enough to wait until tomorrow, I’ll also be posting the newly remastered tutorial for this elastic-waist pants/jeans pattern that fits Tall Barbie® and other fashion dolls.

Please note: you must enlarge my patterns to fit a full-sized piece of American computer paper (8.5 x 11 inches or 216 x 279 mm) without margins, before printing. These designs use a scant 1/4 inch seam (4 mm to be exact).

Are you new to sewing? I’ve got a playlist of tutorials for the beginning sewists on my YouTube channel. It includes video tutorials showing you how to do a basic straight stitch when sewing by hand, how to use the whipstitch to hem a garment, how to sew on snaps, and even how to design your own doll clothes patterns, for those who are new to design and alterations.

In case you haven’t heard, I have actually designed some commercial patterns for Lammily LLC. They have some new dolls in their line, including a new male doll, so you might want to visit the Lammily website to see what they’ve got going on.
