Sew a sundress for Petite Barbie w/today’s FREE #SewingPattern @ ChellyWood.com #DollClothesPattern

In this photo, Petite Barbie stands with her body slightly angled away from the camera and her head turned to the left of the photographer. She is an African or African American Petite Barbie doll, and with her hands spread apart, she models a handmade sundress. She stands before a turquoise blue backdrop. She has a maroon-colored streak running through her curly black pony tail. Her dress bodice is made of pink felt. The dress skirt, which is gathered at the waist, is made of multicolored purple, pink and a color between-purple-and-pink wavy patterned lines. Her dress straps match the color between purple and pink. There's a ChellyWood.com logo in one corner of the photo.

Today’s blog post is a lot like the one I posted yesterday, but I’m focusing on Petite Barbie today, instead of Skipper.

For the sundress pictured above, it’s a good idea to use 1/8 inch Offray ribbon or 1/4 inch Offray ribbon for your straps, even though in today’s sewing tutorial video, I am using 1/4 inch double-fold bias tape. Whether you’re an experienced sewist or not, you’ll find using ribbon for your straps rather than bias tape will offer the same effect, but it will be a whole heck of a lot easier to sew.

The bodice should be cut from felt, and the more flexible your felt swatch, the better. The skirt should be cut from cotton or a cotton-poly blend fabric.

Today’s patterns will fit these dolls:
