#MostPopular FREE Patterns on my #WordPress Website: #May2017

Those of you who know me in real life are aware that I’m a librarian. During the month of May, my paying job gets pretty hectic with standardized tests in our school library and the task of inventorying our library’s holdings. So I won’t have the opportunity to design new patterns for a while. Therefore, I’m going to take a little time off from my blog … Continue reading #MostPopular FREE Patterns on my #WordPress Website: #May2017

#Retro swimsuit pattern for fashion #Dolls is free @ ChellyWood.com #CraftyMom

#DIY skirt for Curvy #Barbie® w/ free pattern @ ChellyWood.com #Dolls

Just look at that adorable long shamrock skirt! As it says in the video, this skirt pattern should fit nearly any fashion doll, within reason. The trick, once again, is to measure the doll’s waist for the elastic. That way you can be sure it will fit her waist once the elastic gathers the fabric. Here’s a link to the pattern you’ll need. And since … Continue reading #DIY skirt for Curvy #Barbie® w/ free pattern @ ChellyWood.com #Dolls

Do #Vintage Barbie #Patterns Fit New #Barbies?

Sorry for the nude Barbies®, everyone, but I wanted to show you how different these dolls look. Note the significant change in the bust, waist, and hip areas in particular.
