Today’s sewing project probably looks familiar to my regular followers. Until today, I only had a tutorial for making these shorts to fit smaller (teeny-tiny) dolls. But the same pattern will also fit a lot of 10-inch (25 cm) fashion dolls like Petite Barbie, the Disney Princess dolls, Skipper, and more, as you’ll see below.

So today’s tutorial will work better for those bigger dolls, which have been sharing their tutorial video with the little American Girl Mini dolls, Breyer Rider dolls, and similar dollhouse-sized dolls.

Regardless of which doll you’re sewing for today, I recommend using a stretchy jersey fabric for today’s sewing project.

Today’s pattern will fit these dolls:

• Disney Princess 10 inch dolls
• Disney fairy 9 inch dolls (like the little Tinkerbell dolls)
• Momoko dolls
• Petite Barbie dolls
• Skipper dolls
• vintage Sunshine Family adult female dolls
• Project MC Squared dolls
• Creatable World dolls

Here are your free, printable PDF sewing patterns for making the athletic shorts shown at the top of this post:

• Free printable PDF sewing pattern for a 9 or 10 inch fashion doll’s shorts
• Here’s a tutorial video showing how to make a casing

For dolls 13 inches or smaller, I recommend that you use 1/8 inch wide elastic.
