#Sewing project for beginners and #kids: Monster #Doll shirt made of felt

Earlier this week, I gave you the pattern for this shirt. Granted, it can be a little confusing, because it says it’s the pattern for a western shirt, but we won’t be using the sleeves. Furthermore, as it says in the tutorial, if you choose to make your doll’s shirts out of felt instead of more traditional woven fabrics, you won’t have to hem it … Continue reading #Sewing project for beginners and #kids: Monster #Doll shirt made of felt

Just be very careful when using cheap felt, as it can tear when you put the … Continue reading #Doll Boots #Sewing Pattern and #DIY Tutorial
