Free printable sun dress pattern for Petite Barbie is perfect for beginners #LearningToSew #DollClothesPatterns

Here we see a Petite Barbie modeling a handmade sun dress atop a concrete block, in front of Montmartre, in Paris, France. The doll's skirt is slightly lifted, so we can see that she wears a pair of shorts beneath the skirt, and the shorts are made of the same turquoise blue striped cotton fabric as her dress's skirt. The impressive structure of the Montmartre cathedral looms above and behind her, with its gorgeous arched windows, round-topped towers, and glistening white architectural walls. The Chelly Wood dot com logo appears in one corner.

Today’s free sun dress pattern may look familiar to you. That’s because it has been available on this website as a JPG-only pattern. Today I’m converting it to a PDF pattern for your easy download.

You’ll also notice, in the image at the top of today’s blog post, that the doll wears a pair of shorts under this mini-skirt sundress. The shorts pattern is also provided before.

And yes, I actually took these photos in Paris! Back in about 2014, my youngest daughter and I took a trip to Paris, where I took hundreds of photos of my dolls in various Parisian settings. The image above shows Petite Barbie in front of Montmartre Cathedral.

A Petite Barbie stands before one of the medieval arched doorways of the original Notre0Dame de Paris cathedral, prior to its 2019 fire. The Petite Barbie has her back turned to the camera, so we can see that her dress has white satin Offray ribbon straps that are quite narrow (1/8 inch) and that snaps have been used to close the back of her sundress from the top of the bodice to the bottom of the skirt. The ChellyWood.com logo appears in the lower right corner.

To make this dress, you will need some craft felt, cotton fabric, and 1/8 inch Offray ribbon. As you can see in the image above, the back closure uses size 2/0 snaps, not Velcro, because I’ve found that Velcro can get tangled up in the felt.

Be sure to cut your skirt fabric (the cotton fabric), using the shorter skirt pattern. There’s a line on the pattern page that says, “Cut here for short skirt,” so you’ll want to use that shorter skirt pattern.

The image shows a Petite Barbie modeling a turquoise blue felt and cotton easy-to-sew sun dress in front of a garden of roses. The dress has a full skirt made of striped cotton fabric in multiple shades of turquoise blue. Its skirt is very short, coming to about mid-thigh on the doll. The bodice is a simple strappy bodice with darts. The doll's dangling plastic earrings match the turquoise blue of the felt bodice. The ribbon straps are made of 1/8 inch white satin ribbon. The doll has dark chocolate complexion and very curly black hair. The roses behind her are different shades of pink and red and white, and in the distant background, we see a lovely brick building with arches. The Chelly Wood dot com logo appears in the lower left corner of the photo.
