Wedding Dress w/Long Sleeves for Barbie: Free Patterns @ ChellyWood.com #ChristmasGiftIdea #DollClothes

The image shows a vintage Mattel Barbie doll modeling a white ball gown. The sleeves of the dress are puffy from the top at the shoulder to the small white cuffs. The neckline is sort of U-shaped. The skirt is slightly full (it does have a layer of tulle under the skirt, and this petticoat makes the skirt seem full). The doll is a brunette with her long straight hair pulled back. Her eyes are blue. The background is a mottled purple and pink color. There's a watermark on the image, telling you that this long-sleeved wedding dress was designed by Chelly Wood, whose website, ChellyWood.com, offers free printable PDF sewing patterns for making doll clothes to fit dolls of many shapes and all different sizes.

Every Christmas, my basic wedding dress pattern gets a lot of downloads, even though I haven’t had it converted to a PDF yet. So this Christmas, I’m offering the PDF version for your sewing pleasure!

To make today’s long-sleeved wedding dress, I recommend using plain white cotton fabric. You’ll also need a few size 4/0 Dritz snaps.

You can always embellish your wedding dress with lace trim and/or ribbons as well.
