Scroll down to the third set of bullets for the free PDF sewing patterns.
Yes, this sleeveless top and jeans pattern set has been available on my website before, but in the past, it wasn’t available as a PDF (easy-to-print) sewing pattern. Rather, my patterns only existed here as a JPG image that you could click on and download.
If you’re wishing the pattern was a little different, please scroll down past the needle and cross stitch marker. I do teach courses in doll clothes pattern alterations which may help you turn this pattern into the one you had in your imagination when you arrived at my website.

This doll’s name is Gooliope Jellington, but I’ve been told these patterns will fit any of the 17 inch doll MH dolls. Frankie Stein? As long as she’s 17 inches tall, you should be golden. Draculaura? Yep. Her too.
To make today’s felt shirt and lightweight denim jeans for your 17 inch tall Monster High dolls, you will likely need the following items:
- cotton fabric (I recommend lightweight denim-look cotton) on Etsy
- craft felt on Amazon
- Gondola Snaps on Etsy (size 7 mm is a good choice)
- 1/8 inch elastic on Amazon
- chopsticks (for inverting doll clothes)
- Dritz fabric pencil
- Fiskars Stitchers mini snips (for clipping seams efficiently)
- Gutermann sewing machine thread
This list comes from my “Buyer’s Guide” page, which is easily accessed from the home page.
And if you’re interested in using earth-friendly fabrics, please consider buying your fabric from FabScrap. FabScrap is a fabric recycle and reuse service, where you can buy fabrics that would otherwise go into landfills! Watch my FabScrap unboxing video to see what kinds of fabrics they sent me!
