The Saga of Judy Littlechap’s Wardrobe Continues #DollCollector #DollClothesPatterns

Last Monday, I told you that I had decided to allow myself to be inspired by making my Barbie a vintage dress from Simplicity 5731, a wardrobe pattern for vintage Tressy dolls. My plan was to first make the dress in View 1 (above) for my vintage Barbie. Then, once I was comfortable with the pattern, I’d create a similar one for my Judy Littlechap doll … Continue reading The Saga of Judy Littlechap’s Wardrobe Continues #DollCollector #DollClothesPatterns

In this very close shot of Judy Littlechap's face, we see that she has light blue eyes, her eyebrows are in tact, and her lips are a deep grapefruit color. Her nose is sligly dirty, and there's a single spot of dirt on her left cheek, but her cheeks' blush is rosy and natural looking.

A Judy Littlechap doll which wears a handmade swimsuit stands beside a vintage-looking sewing pattern for making a fashion doll's wardrobe. Either the doll is quite tall or the pattern is small because they are very out-of-proportion with one another. The frame is a quilt made of turquoise blue and purple fabrics. The chellywood.com logo appears alongside the photo of the doll with the sewing pattern for making doll clothes.

Meet Judy Littlechap! She’s a 13 inch doll, and I recently found her at my local Goodwill store. Back in January, someone named Christine C. asked me if I was planning to post any patterns for the new 13 inch “My First Barbie,” and I told her that I didn’t have any plans to that effect. And then I ran across Judy Littlechap, who will … Continue reading Plan a wardrobe for Judy Littlechap with me! @ ChellyWood.com #VintageToys #DollClothesPatterns
