Tutorial: Drafting Patterns

At long last, the tutorial I've wanted to do for a long time, pattern drafting!  Making your own patterns has lots of benefits.  It saves money, it guarantees a better fit for your doll, and you can make an item you like again in other fabrics without having to take the measurements all over again.  And introducing Tandrelim, my sister's housemate.  Tall, isn't he?  Well, onto the highly anticipated turorial!

Tutorial: Slip-on Shoes

Hi guys!  It's been a wicked long time since I posted a tutorial, and this was a learning experience for me, so I thought I'd share it with you.  Here's how I made a pair of dolly shoes!

Tutorial: Sock Sweater

I just made a new sweater for Feebee out of a pair of ankle socks.  Low price and looks great!  This tutorial is good for 1/3 scale dolls, so grab 2 socks (4 for long sleeves) and your sewing kit. :)

Tutorial: Faceups or painting your doll's face!

Painting your dolls faces yourself has a lot of benefits.  In addition to saving you money (about 10$ per head), you get to really personalize the doll.  There's also a sense of pride every time you look at them. :)  I hope everyone tries it out.  I know it's daunting at first, but once you take the leap and paint your first face, it's nothing but fun!
