Today’s tutorial video shows you how to make a pair of pink satin and cotton shoes, which are designed to fit 13 inch Barbie or Judy Littlechap dolls. I made this pattern to go with the following pink satin dress:

The image shows a 13 inch My First Barbie from Mattel, modeling a handmade satin dress in an early 1960's style. The dress is made of pink satin, and the shoes are also made of pink satin with pink foam soles. The doll has Asian features and long black hair with a tiny pony tail off to one side of the rest of her hair, which falls straight down, behind her back. The wall behind the doll is a pale turquoise blue. The floor she stands on is white. Her feet are crossed at the ankles, and the doll stands with her hands at her sides. The giant satin bow sits at the waist of the dress, where there are pleats facing inward, at the front of the dress. The Chelly Wood dot com logo appears in one corner of the image.

To make these shoes, you’ll need some satin for the outer fabric, and at the time of this blog post, I happen to have plenty of pink satin in my store! Click here to buy some, and click here to learn the story of where my satin came from.

You’ll also need some cotton for the lining pieces, some craft foam for the soles of the shoes, and if it’s helpful to you, here’s a link to a glue gun (for those of you who don’t already own one).

The image shows a doll's feet wearing a pair of satin shoes with foam soles. The shoes are made of pink satin with a pink craft foam sole. The text reads, "free pattern" over a square cotton fabric frame made of purple cotton fabric with tiny white polka dots. The Chelly Wood dot com logo appears in the upper right hand corner above the photo of dolls' shoes.

The pattern link will include the pattern for the pretty pink satin dress with a bow, that you see on my Judy Littlechap doll (below) and my 13 inch My First Barbie (up above a little ways).

A Remco Judy Littlechap doll stands slightly to the left of the viewer, facing the viewer full-on. She wears a pink satin dress that is long enough to just cover her knees. Her hair is brown, with aside part. She has blue eyes and rosy cheeks. Her dress has an almost boatneck-style neckline and side bust darts. The pink satin bow at the front of her dress is quite large, covering the whole front of the waist area. The doll also wears matching pink, satin, home-made shoes with pink foam soles.

If you sew doll clothes and sell them on Etsy or eBay, I bet you’ll find that handmade dresses and shoes for the 13 inch My First Barbie, as well as handmade dresses and shoes for Judy Littlechap are hard to find online.

Hopefully you can make some lovely outfits for them and sell them at a higher price because the market isn’t saturated. Enjoy this free pattern, everyone!

The 13-inch Judy Littlechap dolls were only produced by Remco for one year, and by the end of 1963, the whole family of Remco Littlechap dolls were discontinued. Today, Remco still produces toys, but the Littlechap family of dolls, which included Doctor John Littlechap, his wife Lisa Littlechap, teenage daughter Judy Littlechap, and younger sister, Libby Littlechap, are no longer available in stores. You can, however, find and collect all of them at very reasonable prices, on eBay. Visit the Remco website to see what toys and games they offer today.
