Happy Thanksgiving to those of you who live in the United States. I don’t know about you, but I always start to feel a sense of panic around Thanksgiving time because I begin to realize that I’m nowhere near done sewing all the presents I want to give away at Christmas!
So today’s project is super easy — it won’t take you long to whip up a quick Curvy Barbie skirt, using my holiday skirt pattern for fashion dolls. That should help reduce the panic! 😀
To make this skirt, you’ll need some small-print cotton fabric and 1/4 inch wide elastic.
And as you’ll see in the tutorial, it really is quite easy to make!
Today’s patterns will fit these dolls:
- Curvy Barbie (from Mattel)
- Vintage Tammy dolls (from Ideal Toy Corp.)
- Lammily First Edition dolls (only the View B outfit will fit these dolls)
Here are your free, printable PDF sewing patterns and tutorial videos for making the outfit shown at the top of this page:
