Sorry I forget the comment just goes to the top… 1/8 inch grommets are in the paper crafting area.

Look in the paper crafting section of a craft store. That is where I get mine.

I just discovered your webpage(s). I sewed as a teen and a wife and mother and then stopped completely for more than forty years when I began law school and law practice. Through a project at church I began sewing on a modest scale and then found an old pattern for fabric felines dressed in Elizabethan costumes. I learned a lot with than pattern and made several
fabulous felines and finally a Scarlett O’Hara cat in the famous ball dress made of draperies.
I scaled down a museum size 5 women’s pattern and again learned a lot.

I am now involved in making doll clothes. Since my 18 inch dolls are not American Girl dolls I am back to altering patterns. Since I could not find the notions called for in the patterns, I turned
to catalogues and the internet. I want to make the complete outfit for each doll and that includes shoes. The problem is that the patterns call for 1/8 inch grommets for the doll boots and lace up shoes and I cannot find them in the local stores nor the internet. I just read a review
today of a book regarding making doll clothes and she admitted she has had the same problem and finally found a supplier in England, so now I am researching English suppliers.

I began collecting dolls many years ago and had room to display only a few at a time. So most of them have stayed in the box. Through the help of a friend who is a skilled organizer, I now have a room devoted to sewing and crafts. I am taking most of my dolls out of their boxes display them on new shelves and will have more dolls of varied sizes to make outfits for. The ones I have have been making clothes for have been rescued from thrift stores with a view to
donating them as gifts.

I was delighted to see that you provide patterns for a variety of dolls.

I enjoyed your tutorials on clipping and bonding fabrics on short chains of thread. I leaned about cutting the various layers of fabric for a smoother effect. Hadn’t thought about that one.
