Chelly Wood loves Shakespeare! She has taken stop-motion and still footage of all five acts of Romeo and Juliet. Follow ChellyWood1 on YouTube to see each section of the production as it unfolds.

By the heading I’ve chosen, you probably won’t be surprised when I tell you that the costume I designed for my Friar Laurence to wear in the stop-motion video I’m producing of Romeo and Juliet is quite popular with Sunday School teachers. I guess they use it to make costumes for Father Christmas, Jesus, holiday angels, and various Bible characters. I’ve received a number of emails … Continue reading #Medieval monk or #SundaySchool character #DIY project w/free pattern @ ChellyWood.com

The image shows a Momoko doll dressed in her Juliet gown and veil from Chelly Wood's stop motion production of Romeo and Juliet. The doll is reaching out her hand to touch the muzzle of a small pony. The pony is bridled and wears a blanket. They stand in a tiny garden with green leafy plants and a wrought iron gate in the distance. Would you like to sew these doll clothes for your Momoko doll?

In my dolly version of Romeo and Juliet, I cast Soul from Hasbro’s World of Love dolls as my Benvolio character. Soul is a fabulous little 8″ doll from the 1970’s, and her clothes will fit Breyer™ dolls as well as Mattel’s early 8″ Stacie™ dolls. I’d venture to guess most 8″ dolls will be able to fit into these patterns. Here are links to … Continue reading Free printable #dollclothes patterns for 8-inch #dollhouse #dolls @ ChellyWood.com

A Mattel Barbie doll wears a lovely Basque traditional dress in yellow and white with tiny red flowers. She also has a snood holding her auburn hair back. She stands in a diorama with a bust of a composer, two oak doors, a candelabra, and a red and blue family crest draped down one wall.

There are five pieces to this Basque-style dress, which I designed to fit Barbie™-sized (1:6 scale) fashion dolls. There’s a long-sleeved gown worn under the pinafore, like a shift or undergarment; there’s the apron-like pinafore with the lace-up bodice; there are two lace-up sleeves which don’t have to be worn with it (but look very elegant); and there’s a snood (the hat thing).

The photograph shows a Barbie and Ken whose faces and hair have been redone. The Ken doll's grey hair is quite long under his muffin cap. He has a puff-sleeve tunic and trousers. The Barbie's fluffy grey haired wig blends well with her black and white dress that has a skirt that's split in front, revealing her pale eyelet fabric petticoat. Her puffy sleeves are jet black and eyelet. The two dolls stand in a large feasting room in a castle diorama.
