In a turquoise blue thumbnail, a black Barbie with long straight black hair and silver hoop earrings models a handmade cotton shirt with raglan sleeves. The text reads "free pattern" and this blog post is on Halloween, so it makes sense that the shirt is orange.

I made a poodle skirt with this old pattern, but I had a few problems… #SewingFail #SewingProjects

Last Monday I shared an old vintage Barbie pattern that I thought would be ideal for sewing a poodle skirt. But I mentioned that these older patterns are designed for vintage Barbie, and those older Barbies have a narrower waist than today’s Barbies. So what pattern would be better for a modern Barbie? Well before giving you my answer to that question, I wanted to … Continue reading I made a poodle skirt with this old pattern, but I had a few problems… #SewingFail #SewingProjects

The image shows a modern African American or African fashion doll wearing a handmade wedding gown. The bodice of the dress is overlaid with off-white lace, and there's a layer of cream-covered lace over the top of the cotton skirting. The straps of the dress are also made of lacy off-white ribbon. This image represents the doll dress you can make with the free printable PDF sewing patterns found at ChellyWood.com (and incidentally, the website also offers free tutorial videos showing how to make this dress and variations of this dress).

Bias Tape #Sewing Tutorial

  This week I re-issued my easiest doll shirt pattern and tutorial video. But I’m also going to show you how to add a notion to the felt doll shirt: bias tape. I often recommend learning to sew with felt, if you’re an absolute beginner. But the drawback to making dolls’ clothes out of felt is the fray factor.
