Yes, this is the same pattern I posted last Friday, but it looks a little different in green cotton Christmas fabric, using eyelet lace trim instead of the fur I used in the red version of the dress.

I lucked out and … Continue reading FREE Holiday sewing patterns for Skipper Doll elf costume @ ChellyWood.com #HappyHolidays #DollClothes

Here we see a Mattel Skipper doll looking to her right. She is posed with arms slightly extended. She wears a handmade set of under garments or possibly a swimsuit. The bra is a sporty sports bra style garment with white cotton jersey fabric for the top half of the sports bra and blue elastic for the bottom half of the sports bra. The straps are made of the same turquoise blue elastic as the bottom half of the sports bra. The underpants (or swimsuit bottoms) are made of white cotton jersey fabric with the same turquoise blue elastic waistband that we see in the straps and bottom half of the sports bra. The underpants elastic just barely covers the doll's belly button. These would be considered briefs in terms of under clothing styles.

Tips and tricks for beginners learning to sew: What if doll clothes don’t fit? @ ChellyWood.com #SewingTips #LearningToSew
