FYI to sick or disabled folks and those who assist or care for them:  Simplicity patterns has a new line of adaptive sewing patterns.  Designs include tops with port access, clothing with velcro closures, bags and cushions for mobility aids, bibs, chemo hats, and more.

I’m excited about these because they are the first patterns of this kind I’ve seen anywhere.  And Simplicity patterns are great for beginning sewists, with very clear step by step instructions and illustrations.

Patterns can be purchased here:  https://simplicity.com/simplicity/adaptive/

I Saw Pill Bugs On Here A Few Weeks Ago And Really Wanted To Make My Own! The Pattern Is A Bit Rough
I Saw Pill Bugs On Here A Few Weeks Ago And Really Wanted To Make My Own! The Pattern Is A Bit Rough

I saw pill bugs on here a few weeks ago and really wanted to make my own! The pattern is a bit rough but I hope it works (I tried to get it perfect for like a week before calling it good enough).

Just print out (or copy from a screen) the first page and cut out the pattern pieces. Hopefully the pictures on page two will help but if not I will do my best to answer any questions!

Hope you enjoy and make your own lil isopod friend!

If anyone makes this, I would love to see pictures 💕

Sewing doll clothes

Tights/fishnets pt.2

Sewing Doll Clothes

Now to sew!

(TW: needles/pins)

Please read the whole post before starting this project!!

Sewing Doll Clothes

First, find your fabric. It HAS to be 4 way stretch, which means you can stretch it up/down and left/right. If it isn’t 4 way stretch, you may not be able to get the tights on your doll.

Sewing Doll Clothes

Grab the pattern you made and you fabric!! If you want to make two tights (a pair) fold your fabric over like the photo. The cut around the pattern, where the dotted lines are in the photo.

Sewing Doll Clothes

Pin you pattern to the rectangle of fabric. Then cut to your pattern shape.

Sewing Doll Clothes

Then you will have these weird shapes!!

Optional: hemming the top of the tights

Sewing Doll Clothes

Take the top of the tights and fold them over, then pin. It should look like in the photo. Then sew over the folded bit of fabric (it might be hard to sew this, so I recommend putting a piece of paper underneath the fabric to help)

Sewing Doll Clothes

Fold your pieces in half and pin on the raw edge

Sewing Doll Clothes

I recommend having a piece of paper underneath your fabric as you’re sewing so you machine doe not eat the fabric. If you are hand sewing, you do not need this paper.

Sewing Doll Clothes

Sew! use 1/8th inch seam allowance while sewing (really close to the edge) do this to both

Sewing Doll Clothes

Rip your tights free! Make sure to get all the paper out of the seam

Pt 3 ! I hit the photo limit again :/

Sewing Doll Clothes

Finishing the tights!!

Sewing Doll Clothes

Cut all the extra strings on the tights (do this right now before you inside-out the tights)

Sewing Doll Clothes

Inside-out the tights!!

Sewing Doll Clothes

Try the tights on your doll!! Mine could have been shorter and have tighter ankles, but you can change your pattern to fix any of your problems!!

Sewing doll clothes

Tight skirt

Sewing Doll Clothes

A tight skirt pattern!! I recommend reading through the whole post before starting!!

(TW: pins/needles)

You need:

-a doll (I have an ever after high doll)

-Knit/jersey fabric (any 4 way stretch fabric)

-paper

-marker/pen/pencil

-sewing machine (with thread!!)

-scissors

-pins

Sewing Doll Clothes

First, grab your doll!! I have an ever after high doll, but this works for any doll. Then, draw around your dolls hips just like in the picture. You can then make you skirt any length you want

Sewing Doll Clothes

Move your doll away, and add 1/8th” seam allowance to the top and bottom of the pattern

Sewing Doll Clothes

Cut your pattern out!!!

Sewing Doll Clothes

Find your fabric!! It needs to stretch up and down and left to right!! Jersey/knit/spandex is good

Sewing Doll Clothes

Fold your fabric over and pin your pattern to your fabric

Sewing Doll Clothes

Cut your fabric and you will have 2 pieces!

Sewing Doll Clothes

Next, take the top of one of the pieces and fold the fabric over a bit (look at the picture above)

Then pin. Do that to the bottom and the second piece of fabric too (hopefully it will look like the photo)

Sewing Doll Clothes

Use paper under your sewing so your pieces don’t get eaten by the sewing machine!!

Sewing Doll Clothes

Sew!! Sew both the top and bottom folded parts on both pieces!!

Pt. 2 !! Hit the photo limit :((

If something doesn’t make sense, ask!!

Tight skirt pt.2

Sewing Doll Clothes

Tight skirt! You will NEED to read the first post to understand this one! As always, read the whole post before you start!!

Sewing Doll Clothes

Rip your pieces out of the paper!!

Sewing Doll Clothes

Now, match the top and bottom together, putting the two “pretty” sides together (the sides that are hemmed and nice) and pin them together

Sewing Doll Clothes

Sew the two sides in the photo (un-hemmed sides)

Sewing Doll Clothes

Rip the skirt from the paper and trim all excess threads

Then inside-out the skirt!!

Sewing Doll Clothes
