#Sew a Zipper Jacket for Barbies w/ This FREE Printable Sewing Pattern #instadolls #dollcollector

This week I’m going to show you how to make this zipper-front jacket or ski coat. The pattern fits most 11.5-inch dolls and some with wider bodies and even longer arms. Tomorrow I’ll post the pattern, and Friday I’ll post the tutorial. This zipper-front jacket project isn’t for the beginner seamstress. Zippers can be tricky to do, so bear that in mind. It helped that I … Continue reading #Sew a Zipper Jacket for Barbies w/ This FREE Printable Sewing Pattern #instadolls #dollcollector

#Children Say #Thanks in the Sweetest Way!

The Swedish traditional costume that I featured on ChellyWood.com in October and November was made for a friend’s little girl, Delia, and although I certainly didn’t expect anything in return, she made me this lovely picture to say thanks in the sweetest way: Incidentally, Delia’s dad is a fantastic, freelance book editor. If there are any writers out there, who would like to have a professional … Continue reading #Children Say #Thanks in the Sweetest Way!

Create a Swedish “Pocket” Purse for Your 18-Inch #Dolls @ ChellyWood.com #Broderie #Felt

In the next two weeks, I’m going to teach you how to make a Swedish purse, which I’m told they call a “pocket” in Sweden. Rather than having a strap that goes over your shoulder, these pocket-purses wrap around your waist, like a belt. However it would be easy to alter the pattern to include a shoulder strap if you like.   But one of … Continue reading Create a Swedish “Pocket” Purse for Your 18-Inch #Dolls @ ChellyWood.com #Broderie #Felt

  Just look at this little Swedish sweetie! I found an image of the traditional costumes from Leksand, Dalarna, Sweden on Pinterest, and I thought, “Oooh! I wanna make that!” Traditional costumes are so bright and colorful anyway, but for some reason I was really drawn in by this particular style. I gathered a bunch of images on one of my Pinterest board called, “Swedish Traditional … Continue reading Preview of #AGdoll Clothes Patterns That I’ll Begin Posting Next Week @ ChellyWood.com #Dollstagram #Crafty
