Use Denim For Making Dolly's Clothing
Need inspiration for a fantastic new dolly garment? Try denim! Denim is a wonderful pick to make a dolly appear authentically from the country or it transforms her into a socialite dressed in a classy getup! Sewing with denim is so good in many uses and is a good staple for your dolly's wardrobe when sewing for dolls.
Supple, durable, and lightweight, all cotton denim is a really good option when working with denim. It's best to wash and dry the fabric, which makes it easier to work with prior to sewing. Finishing the edges by zig-zagging will prevent fraying. Seam widths are best stitched at 1/4 inch when working with a doll clothing pattern. Use the same style stitching you would on a t-shirt sleeve, reducing thickness, but adds the finished touch of topstitching with a heavier thread. This extra stitching also adds durability to the seam for a new special outfit when sewing with denim.
Denim is a very versatile fabric! You could utilize it to sew multiple styles of clothes when you use denim to sew for dolls.
…Sew work overalls and a complimentary plaid shirt for dolly to wear with her cowboy boots when she is visiting on the farm or ranch, herding the cattle or gathering eggs from under the hens.
…Create a cute, denim skirt for dolly to wear when she enjoys a a malt with a girl friend. Compliment it with a cozy sweater or a warm, knitted hat as an accent.
…Have a denim clutch bag to go with any darling outfit Dolly wears.
…Add a trendy top, fuzzy headband and fancy shoes for Dolly to go shopping with her mom. She could wear this fancy outfit to her job in as a fashion consultant. Along with her silk hair scarf that looks great along with denim, she's lookin' good!!
…Add a sweatshirt and a sling pack to go with some "skinny" jeans and tennis shoes for the T ball game at the field.
…In addition, jeans go nifty with tie-dye t-shirts! Denim is so unique and universally accepted as play clothes, but it has its moments of allure also! Attach rhinestones to yokes or handbags. Add sequins and beads in the design of a puppy, a kitty, of even a falling star to suit the little girl who Dolly belongs to. You can even have cascading beads and sequins sloping from the front pocket down to mid-thigh for a very trendy look.
Denim is great with western fabrics, but don't be afraid to combine it with a bit of silk, chiffon, or other dressy fabrics. Suede and leather or faux-leather also work well with denim and create a stylish feel in your dolls clothes that you've made. View what types of patterns are out there for kids' clothes, particularly jeans, and copy that for your dolls' clothing.
When sewing doll clothes patterns, denim is a simple material that you shouldn't ignore! It is an essential for all doll's closet. If you are seeking a relaxed, work garment for jobs on the farm, or for a trendy garment for the company job or night on the town, denim is a wonderful pick for any doll. Denim sewing is a ideal way to enhance your dolly's outfits!
