In this photo, the Chelly Wood doll (actually a Spin Master Liv doll that has had its face re-painted and its wig dyed grey to look like the doll clothing designer, YouTuber, and writer Chelly Wood) stands in her sewing room with her arms spread out wide in a welcoming stance. On the doll's right (your left) we see her hutch filled with tiny folded fabrics. There's a window directly behind her. At her side is her sewing desk with tiny fabrics, a miniature sewing machine, and other sewing supplies on top. To her left (your right) behind the doll, there's a sea blue mannequin displaying an in-progress sun dress with a tape measure around the mannequin's neck. Hanging from a sea blue hanger on the wall is the white party dress with tiny polka dots that often appears in Chelly's videos on the mannequin. The floor is hard wood. The wall is purple. Chelly's desk chair has been upholstered in sea blue fabric. In the corner of the image is the logo for ChellyWood.com

Within the square frame of a quilted image, we see a photo of a Made to Move Barbie wearing a handmade kilt-style wrap around skirt, made of green plaid fabric, side-by-side with the image from the cover of Simplicity pattern 8281 from 1977. The real doll and the drawn image from the pattern are standing in identical poses, with feet spread slightly apart and hands at their sides. Both wear a tee shirt with the wrap skirts.

Make a doll’s wrap skirt into a kilt for St. Patrick’s Day @ ChellyWood.com #FreeDollClothesPatterns #StPatricksDay

The image above shows the Simplicity 8281 vintage sewing pattern from 1977, and I have to admit that I’ve been sort of obsessed with the skirt in View 5 of this pattern for quite some time. So last night I decided to make a St. Patrick’s Day green plaid kilt, using this wrap-around skirt pattern. Here’s how it turned out, and I must say I’m … Continue reading Make a doll’s wrap skirt into a kilt for St. Patrick’s Day @ ChellyWood.com #FreeDollClothesPatterns #StPatricksDay

Here we see a photo of a Dwayne Johnson ("the Rock") action figure from the WWE Action Figure toy set form Mattel. He wears handmade jeans and a handmade cowboy shirt. The logo for Chelly Wood dot com is in the corner of the frame, and the words "free pattern" float in the air near the action figure.

In this image, a Dwayne Johnson "the Rock" action figure from WWE toys and action figures, models a handmade outfit, including a pair of denim jeans and a cowboy shirt. An arrow points at the jeans, along with the words "free pattern" which seem to indicate there's a free pattern for making these jeans for your action figures on the website ChellyWood.com (which is labeled in the corner with a logo emblem).

How to Make WWE Action Figure Pants or Jeans w/Free Pattern @ ChellyWood.com #WWEactionFigures #DollClothesPatterns

Scroll down to the second set of bullets for the free PDF sewing patterns. This week we’re making a pair of elastic-waist pants for our WWE professional wrestler action figures. This pattern was particularly tricky to make because these action figures have a very muscular build and large feet. So I had to make sure the foot opening at the bottom of their pants/jeans would … Continue reading How to Make WWE Action Figure Pants or Jeans w/Free Pattern @ ChellyWood.com #WWEactionFigures #DollClothesPatterns

How to Store Unfinished Sewing Projects #SewingProjects #DollClothesPatterns

We all have them. Yes, you know you do. Those projects that you have cut out and left sitting on the ironing board–those unfinished sewing projects–we like to think they will disappear if we just kick them under the bed, but they do not. They stick around. For years. Until you face them… Yep, even I have unfinished sewing projects. Would you like to know … Continue reading How to Store Unfinished Sewing Projects #SewingProjects #DollClothesPatterns

On a turquoise blue fabric frame, we see the words "free pattern" alongside a Barbie wearing a handmade long dress and a handmade medieval cloak or cape with hood. There's also a company logo for ChellyWood.com in the corner of the image.
