Isn’t that a pretty little skirt with lace trim? Actually, it would be more accurate to say I’m using the lace as a petticoat here.
You could also use tulle the exact same way, but it would look more like this, with tulle:
So, it’s not that different with tulle, but you’d have to imagine the shamrock-patterned skirt with a Christmas print fabric and maybe a different color of tulle.
Anyway, if you would like to make today’s outfit, which should fit most Monster High and Ever After High dolls, or other dolls with a similar super-slender body type, you’ll need some very small Dritz snaps, plain white cotton fabric (for the tunic), lace trim for the tunic’s sleeves and longer lace trim for the petticoat, some 1/8 inch elastic for the skirt, and a holiday print fabric for the skirt’s outer layer.
My doll is also wearing little black Mary Janes. You can learn more about how to make those if you click here. The pattern for the Mary Janes is included below.
Today’s free doll clothes patterns will fit these dolls:
- Monster High female dolls
- Ever After High female dolls
- Kuu Kuu Harajuku dolls (the shoes won’t fit them)
- Project MC Squared dolls (again, the shoes won’t fit them)
