Twist on a Theme Dress 18" Doll Clothes Pattern

2 reviews   |  

The Twist on a Theme Dress is a knee length basic dress with a twist! There are several options to choose from, including: flat or coiled twist, long or short sleeves, dressy or casual, and basic or fully lined options.

Perhaps the most fun of all is the opportunity to pair different textures and colors of woven fabrics. The possibilities are endless! The Basic Version employs a neckline facing and simple hook and loop closure, and the Fully Lined Version calls for an invisible zipper closure and hand sewn hem.

This PDF sewing pattern by Seams to Streams is designed to fit 18" dolls such as American Girl®.  

Recommended Fabrics: Every day woven fabrics for the basic version including quilting cottons. Formal woven fabrics for the lined version such as silk dupioni or satin. Basic lining fabric or cotton lawn
