I first started this website in the early 2010’s, more as a side project than a business. I wasn’t expecting it to become a hub for free sewing patterns.

Back in those early days, I didn’t have a fancy camera, video software, and a sound system, so my earliest videos aren’t of a particularly high quality. That’s why I’m trying to slowly re-master some of those older tutorials. Today’s skirt project is one such tutorial, similar to one from the past, but remastered for better sound quality, voiceover, and clearer instructions.

The original skirt was part of a St. Patrick’s Day collection, and yes, all of these patterns are still available on my website. However, like you’re seeing today, I may have remastered the projects.

Feel free to leave a question in the comments if you’re unable to find one of these projects on my website. I’d be happy to offer directions for how to get to it.

Holidays like St. Patrick’s Day and Halloween offer sewists an opportunity to create a festive skirt project, and I try to capitalize on that sort of thing here at ChellyWood.com.

I’ve been in the process of re-doing the felt top video as well. It’s another really old video that needs to be remastered.

And for anyone who’s waiting for the felt dinner jacket that goes with the Ken/GI Joe and Action man business suit, that project has been temporarily put on hold. I’ve lost some of the images for that tutorial, so I’ll probably have to sew another jacket to compensate for the lost photos and videos.

Sorry about that.

Meanwhile, this mini skirt is a super fun and easy-to-sew project. I hope you enjoy making it!

The Spin Master company held the trademark for the Liv Dolls (™). Please visit the Spin Master Toys and Games website to learn more about their company and its trademarked toys and games. Please be aware that the Chelly Wood animated doll is a Spin Master Liv doll that has been re-painted and had its wig colored to appear to look like the real doll clothing designer, Chelly Wood.

Sindy dolls were originally created by Pedigree Dolls & Toys, but they have been made by other manufacturers including Hasbro, Vivid Imaginations, and New Moon. Currently (at the time of this blog post) a limited number of the newest version of these dolls is being manufactured by Kid Kreations of Staffordshire, England. I haven’t tried my doll clothes on this newer version, but sewists have told me my Tammy doll patterns do fit the vintage Sindy dolls created by Pedigree Dolls & Toys. Please visit one of these toy companies’ websites to learn more about the toys they produce. The Sindy dolls are trademarked and as such, it should be noted that Chelly Wood and ChellyWood.com are not affiliated with either Pedigree or Kid Creations.  However Chelly has enjoyed designing doll clothes that will fit these dolls along with others in a similar size range…
