Sew a Victorian dress for Monster High or Ever After High dolls w/today’s free patterns @ ChellyWood.com #Victorian #DollClothesPatterns

The photo shows a lovely female Ever After High doll wearing a pretty pioneer style dress with lace sleeves and lacy petticoats. The doll stands in a snowy diorama holding a drawstring purse made of pink satin. The dress is made of blue cotton with pink cotton petticoats trimmed in white lace and blue ribbons.

When my oldest daughter was in middle school, about 10 years ago, she was a big fan of Breyer model horses and Breyer Rider dolls. So I originally designed this pattern to fit the Breyer riders.

However, as you can see in the images above and below, the Monster High and Ever After High dolls can also fit into this dress. I only wish the skirt was a bit longer to accommodate their longer legs.

In a room with a pink wall and a white floor, Draculaura is walking around wearing an ankle-length Victorian era gown with lace trimming its elbow-length sleeves and lace peeking out beneath the front of the dress, where the fabric splits to reveal the petticoat. The dress itself is made of blue floral cotton. The petticoat beneath is pink cotton with layers of cream colored lace ruffles and a blue satin ribbon showing. The doll wears black Victorian era high boots which are clearly visible beneath the skirts.

Of course that sort of alteration isn’t hard to do, and as my regular followers know, I do teach a course on doll clothes pattern alterations, on the Creative Spark Online Learning platform. So if you want an “experience” instead of another set of oven mitts for Christmas this year, maybe let your family members know that one of my online classes would make a nice Christmas gift.

Today’s project will require the use of a printed cotton fabric, a solid cotton fabric, some lace trim, and size 3/0 Dritz snaps.

For the drawstring purse, use the rectangle that looks sort of like a business card as your pattern. That’s the rectangle found directly under the word “Style” on the pattern.
