Pattern for Cabbie Hat





This pattern is designed for an 8" diameter head but can be adjusted. I use wool fabric and a stiffener like buckram to make my hats. I would advise making a prototype hat out of stiff fabric and adjusting the pattern for your dolls head (with wig on.)

SD Male Riding Pants Pattern





Close-fitting pants that should fit an SD Male doll with the following measurements:

Height: 60cm
Chest Circumference: 25cm
Arm Length: 17cm
Hips Circumference: 23cm

You may need to adjust the pattern for your individual doll. (You can do so by creating a muslin pattern using this pattern and adjusting it.)

DOLL PATTERN - SD FEMALE NYLON WINTER COAT





You can create a coat like this by cutting up an old adult-sized winter coat. (Make sure you choose one with an elastic waistband to provide the elastic waistband and wrist cuffs for your doll's coat.)

Pockets are optional and can be fitted into the side seam.

You can sew snaps into the front flap and/or sew a zipper into the front closure of the coat.






You can find the Etsy Listing for the above coat here.

The Store Is Growing!

I've placed some new items in the Etsy store today. (I've been trying to make OOAK winter coats and accessories that I think would be hard to find.) All in a desperate attempt to appeal to people's sense of novelty.

God help me, I've even made Doll Snuggies. Doll snuggies!



Seriously. I need help.

Developments....

I set up an Etsy store to sell my creations (as you can tell by the banner above.) I've been working on making a pattern for a Western-style shirt. Here is the first test shirt I've put together after printing the pattern out:



I think I need to scale it up a little bit. The sleeves and hem of the shirt seem a little short. I'll get to work on the pattern and let you know as soon as I have anything to report. In the meantime, please visit my etsy site and my ebay auctions to see my latest doll clothng and accessories. ^_^
