School Dance Dress 14.5" Doll Clothes Pattern

6 reviews   |  

Your 14.5 inch doll will be ready for the School Dance is her easy to make and fun to wear dress. Use colorful prints and solids and mix and match the front and sleeves to create a unique look every time you sew. Change the fabrics to match the seasons and your doll is ready for the holidays, back to school, Valentine's Day or Easter.

The School Dance Dress is an easy to sew pattern to make an A-Line dress with long sleeves in three variations. Add elastic to the sleeves or leave it out for a fuller or retro, 1960's or 1970's look. Choose the simplest version with a solid front (perfect for machine embroidery, heat transfer vinyl, or appliqué), or add a contrasting panel with simple, straight edges or a pretty, princess seam. BONUS: Instructions included for an attached bow, belt or ribbon to tie in front or back to embellish your dress and create your own style.

This classic but simple dress is very easily made from a quarter yard of fabric (quilter's fat quarters work great!) in a woven cotton or other lightweight fabric. Mix and match your fabrics and add trims for unlimited design options. Embellish your dress with embroidery, appliqué, heat transfer vinyl, buttons, bows, crystals, ribbon, trim, ric rac, lace, chain, beads, or any other fun trim you like! With a fully open hook and loop tape closure in back, it's easy on and off for little hands. This pattern is also a perfect pattern for girls that want to learn to sew for their dolls to use to create a full wardrobe for their dolls, or for more experienced seamstresses to make a basic doll wardrobe with lots of options.
