Yesterday I gave you the tutorial video for making these adorable rainbow, bell-bottom, elastic-waist pants, and today I’m going to give you the pattern for the long-sleeved shirt.
Full disclosure: it’s actually the same shirt I used with my Rose Winslow pinafore (suffragist costume) from last week, but for anyone who has enrolled in my “How to Alter Doll Clothes Patterns” course, you should be able to adapt the shirt’s tapered sleeves to form a bell sleeve, just by using your template as a guide.
I got my rainbow-stripe fabric from the $1.99 fat quarters sales at JoAnn Fabrics and Crafts, but it has been a while ago. So you may have trouble finding the exact same fabric today.
For both the bell bottoms and the blouse, I recommend using cotton fabric, and for the pants you’ll also need 1/8 inch elastic. The shirt uses two teeny-tiny buttons at the top, along the neckline, and I used size 4/0 snaps for my shirt’s back closure.
In the tutorial video for the pants, I mention my little Fiskars clipping scissors, which are a fantastic tool for those of us who regularly sew doll clothes!
When I wrote this blog post (a few weeks ago), the little Fiskars clipping scissors were on sale, so hopefully the sale hasn’t ended when this posts.
Today’s pattern will fit these dolls:
- Monster High female dolls
- Ever After High female dolls
- Kuu Kuu Harajuku dolls*
*You may find your Kuu Kuu Harajuku dolls will need to wear high heels with these very long pants.
