One week ago, I gave you the patterns and tutorial video for making this pajama/nightgown/night dress.

Then yesterday I gave you my pattern and tutorial video for making this matching bathrobe:

AND… the bathrobe has real pockets, that Barbie can put her tiny little hands into. Check it out:

Now that I’ve finished the tutorials for all the different parts and pieces of this “Christmas Eve” ensemble, I hope you’ll have fun making this adorable little nightgown and bathrobe set for Barbie and other similar-sized fashion dolls! Here are some links to goodies you’ll need, in order to make this outfit for Barbie’s Christmas Eve present-unwrapping events:
I used a small-print flannel from JoAnn’s Fabrics for my pajamas, but any small-print flannel fabric will work.
You’ll also need a very small amount of cotton fabric for the nightgown bodice’s lining, and three or four, size 3/0 Dritz snaps, for the nightgown’s closure.
Ordinary craft felt will work fine for the slippers, and they’re super easy to sew! You can find the slipper pattern on the third page of the patterns’ PDF.

For the bathrobe, once again I used a small-print flannel from JoAnn’s Fabrics (look for a “cardinals” print flannel on the JoAnn website, if you want to make the exact same one).
You’ll also need some 1/4 inch double-fold bias tape for the trim. I used the bias tape to make a belt as well, and I plan to post that “how-to” video some time next week.
It’s just an afterthought, but if you wanted to, you could loop some 1/8 inch ribbon through the bathrobe’s side seams, just above your pockets, to create belt loops. I wish I’d thought of that while I was sewing, but it didn’t come to me until later.
