There’s a chemisette and everything. It’s for her more modest moments when the aggressively low neckline of the dress is too racy for the occasion.
The fancy underthings patterns can be used for tops and pants for a more contemporary look. There’s also a blouse with a longer sleeve that you can use on the dress or the blouse.
I would totally wear that outfit.
The pattern is loaded with color photos and tons of instruction. The templates are full size and ready to print. Pro tip – you can be sure you printed the pattern correctly by measuring the seamline – it’s ¼ inch.
One of the challenges of sewing for dolls is the smallness and getting a nice drape. Particularly if you’re using scraps or quilting cotton as opposed to garment weight fabrics as I am and guess most people are.
Finger pressing helps. The crease is soft and fades away towards the hem into the fullness of the dress.
It’s Christmas!!!! Thank you, Ann
Love the new wardrobe for the elegant rag doll! So many possibilities, and I appreciate the tip about finger pressing the fold. It’s true that the typical quilting cotton doesn’t really have much drape. I’m having fun collecting small prints and trims for dollmaking. I had a wonderful score this summer of tiny snaps and hooks and eyes at my needlecraft guild’s sale table. Enjoy your blog so much, Ann, thank you!
