Please scroll down to the second set of bullets for the free printable PDF sewing pattern and links to any additional relevant tutorial videos.
To my regular blog followers, this week’s versatile swimsuit pattern will look familiar. Yes, it can be made into a Tutu, gymnast’s leotard, or even an ice skater’s leotard. But where have you seen it before?
I posted these patterns last year, but I had a flaw in the tutorial. (I’m blushing.) I had to take the tutorial down and remove the pattern for a while.
Then a sewing teacher sent me a message… she was counting on using the tutorial video and pattern for one of her classes! Oh no! I quickly patched my mistakes and re-posted the pattern and tutorial for her sake, but today I’ve finally re-mastered the tutorial with the correction to the tutorial in place, and the pattern is uploaded all as one item too, which is less troublesome to download and print.
So here you go…
Today’s free pattern will fit the following dolls:
- Extra large Elsa dolls
- 28″ Barbie dolls
Here’s the free printable PDF doll clothes sewing pattern for the swimsuit/tutu/leotard plus the videos designed to help you make all the pieces:
- free printable PDF sewing pattern for the swimsuit
- free printable pattern for the blue sweater (for the ice-skater)
- tutorial showing how to make the swimsuit (at the top of this page)
- tutorial video showing how to make the sweater
- tutorial video by My Froggy Stuff showing how to make a tutu with tulle and a hair elastic (rubber band)
