How do you box your doll clothes for mailing (shipping)? #Handmade #DollClothesPatterns

The ensemble shown at the top of this page was part of a doll clothes gift I made for a friend’s little girl, Navy. What a cool name this little girl has, don’t you think? Navy? I love it! That’s even a color of fabric! Okay, so when I gave her this gift, consisting of all these handmade doll clothes, how did I package them? … Continue reading How do you box your doll clothes for mailing (shipping)? #Handmade #DollClothesPatterns

On a purple polka dot background we see an African or African American Petite Barbie modeling a white shorts outfit made of cotton printed with tiny dots in pastel colors. Her shorts have a high waist and her tank top has straps. They are separate garments. She wears white plastic high heels. The overlay says, "free pattern" and we see the Chelly Wood dot com logo in one corner.

Sew a Tall Barbie Dress w/Free Pattern #SummerDress #DollClothesPatterns

For your free patterns and tutorial videos, please scroll down to the second set of bullets. This tutorial is unlike some of the other sundress tutorials I’ve created because it’s designed to hide your gathers inside the bodice of the dress.

The image shows a typical fashion doll like Barbie wearing a handmade skirt of holiday fabric and a blouse made of solid color yellow fabric. The skirt appears to be made of shamrock print cotton fabric, but there are tiny yellow shamrocks in the print, which matches the yellow of her blouse. The logo reminds us to go to ChellyWood.com for free printable PDF sewing patterns to make our 4th of July or other holiday outfits for doll clothes.

On a turquoise blue linen frame, we see the words "free pattern" angled across a photo of an Ideal Pepper doll (a vintage doll that was the little sister of Ideal Tammy, and whose United Kingdom counterpart was Patch, the little sister of Sindy dolls). The pepper doll wears a beach bonnet made of turquoise blue cotton and a little white floral sun dress (sundress) with white shoes. In the photo, the Pepper doll is standing in a room with a white floor and purple wall. The ChellyWood.com logo appears in the lower left corner of the image.

Inside a turquoise blue linen frame, we see the words "free pattern" and the ChellyWood.com logo, along with a photo of a Rainbow High 10 inch doll wearing handmade doll clothes including a short-sleeved cotton shirt and a cotton or linen turquoise blue pair of shorts. The shirt is white with tiny flowers in different shades of blue and red on it. The shoes appear to be handmade as well, and they sort of match the turquoise blue shoes.
