For your free patterns and tutorial videos, please scroll down to the second set of bullets.
Sorry some of my patterns are repeats, everyone, but this website is produced by one person — just lil’ ol’ me — Chelly Wood! So when family comes to visit or when my job requires more attention, I have to take time out to do other things besides post patterns.
Today’s project is one that was posted on this site long ago, but I recently discovered that I never actually posted the patterns for it! (Imagine me blushing with embarrassment.) That kind of thing can happen when you are juggling your salaried job (for me, it’s a librarianship at a middle school) with your hobby-turned-small-business (this website plus my YouTube channel). So here are the patterns I meant to post a few years ago and only recently discovered that the patterns were missing!
Today’s patterns will fit these dolls:
- Queens of Africa Dolls
- Momoko dolls
- modern and Made-to-Move Barbie dolls
- Skipper dolls
- vintage Francie dolls
- Liv dolls
- Disney Princess 10 or 11 inch dolls
Here are your free, printable PDF sewing patterns and tutorial videos for making the outfit shown at the top of this page:

Feel free to pin, like, or tweet about my free patterns and tutorials. If you can’t find a specific pattern, just submit a question to me directly.
Here’s a JPG copy of the new revised pattern for you to share on social media:
On the pattern, you’ll notice the instructions at the bottom of the pants pattern: “For cut-off fringe, cut along the fringed edge of the fabric’s selvedge edge.” That’s how I got the “cut-off” look to these pants. I used a lightweight denim that already had fringes along the selvedge. So watch for that when you’re buying fabric, if you’re going for an exact replica of this outfit.
