Doll clothing self-challenge: Clothing Storage (pg. 21)

[Katgyrl]

I may jump in on this if I can! I'm just getting back into Barbies since I pulled out my old childhood girls. And though I saved the Barbies apparantly I didn't think it was important to save clothes... So they need some clothes anyway! I think I may try the sock idea, I'm intrigued!

I'm going to join this for the resinsoul Mei I have on the way She has no clothes yet! Does anyone have some good MSD size patterns for skirts? (Or dresses???? )

[Salli]

Jennova and Repulsive- Those skirts are adorable!! You guys are fast Great job!

Kat- Anyone is welcome to jump on and off as they want

lemon- I don't have any links to bjd patterns, anyone else out there have any?

Thank you! <3

[NovelNerd]

Those are some adorable skirts guys! Really stunning!

I just got home today, so I hope I can work on one tonight or Saturday.

I also have a few skirt patterns, but since I bought them I would feel bad giving them out. I'm sure the seller wouldn't appreciate it. I hope someone has a pattern to share though.

I spent about an hour today trying to make a skirt, and it just would not work the way I wanted it to!

Here's a basic skirt pattern if anyone would find it useful. You'll have to measure you're doll's waist and size it accordingly. The inner part of the circle is the waist, sew only part way up the straight seam to leave room to put it on. The pattern suggests using velcro, but you could use any closure of choice. You could use it as is with a knit fabric, or use cotton and add a waistband and hem/finish off the bottom (or add a ruffle). Sorry it's not a complete pattern with instructions but hopefully it can be useful. If someone wants, I may have time next week to draw up a waistband and ruffle pattern and write out instrucitons for sewing the skirt all together.

I made Evelyn a skirt, it was hand sewn so the stitching looks a little dodgy but it was my first proper skirt

Self challenge up here. It's still a learning process over here for me with sewing, but I like it better than my first few attempts at a skirt. I suppose next time I make it I'll use the actual thread colors needed. It's easier for me learning to see my stitching hence the white.

Far as the pattern goes I got it from Etsy. I cannot remember the ladies name, but I know it's one of those that people have complained her patterns aren't that great. I dunno the patterns aren't giving me tons of issues just my lack of sewing skills and the directions kinda are awful.

lovely skirts so far, everyone! keep them coming ^^

I will also join in the fun sometime, hopefully sooner than later. I dug up what I have to sew from, and I already have a design in mind for a skirt for my Moxie Teen Tristen, now I "just" have to make it come to life.
(ETA: also I will have to handstitch it, as I don't yet have my sewing machine)

[bewilderness]

Almost done with my skirt.  It doesn't have the straightest of stitches since I'm trying to do this as much on the sewing machine as I can, instead of by hand (my usual method).  I don't have a lot of sewing machine practice.
