When I first started sewing doll clothes, one of the first things I made was a pirate costume for Julie that matched my daughter Abby's. Made from leftover scraps, it was the first time I kind of "drafted" a doll pattern and to this day remains one of my favorite doll outfits that I've made. Since then, the dolls who live here have received all sorts of costumes: a witch, a black cat, Little Red Riding Hood, a Jack'O'Lantern, Supergirl, and Goldilocks. But since Julie's pirate costume, I haven't made a doll version of Abby's Halloween costume . . . until this year: Presenting Ivy as Cleopatra! Ivy has just the right hair for a Queen of the Nile look-- the only thing missing is some thick black eyeliner, but there's no way I was drawing on this doll . . . Ivy's costume was made from the scraps of Abby's with leftover trim and rhinestones. And then I decided she needed gold sandals, so those had to be found of course. I had so much fun making Abby's costume, but I have to admit that putting Ivy's costume together was just as exciting. And now Ivy and Julie are ready for Halloween night: Good thing too, because Halloween night is coming up pretty fast! Thank goodness all the dolls who live here have costumes--oh, and my kids do too. We're totally ready. Happy Halloween!

Molly's Miss Victory Costume (also known as Molly's Miss Victory Outfit and Molly's Tap Outfit) was part of Molly's Collection. The outfit was originally part of Molly's Winter Activities, a set released in 1990. The outfit was removed from the set in 1997 and released as a separate outfit in 1999. The first edition was retired in 2006 and rereleased later that year; it was finally retired in 2013 with Molly's collection archival.

Halloween is right around the corner and with all this southwest traveling I decided to make an Indian Princess costume for 18” dolls. Costume Suede is fun to work with. Make sure you purchase one that doesn’t fray so you can leave raw edges. Indian Princess Dress ©2007 Carol Steely FunThreads.blogspot.com Supply List Print the PDF pattern HERE 1/3 yard costume suede Scrap of Velcro 1 feather 3 pony beads Craft glue Sewing supplies Step 1 – Print Pattern and Cut Fabric Print the pattern sheets HERE. Pin and cut the fabric as needed. Step 2 – Add Fringe Strip Transfer the fringe placement line from the pattern to the fabric. Pin and sew the fringe strips in place. Carefully cut the fringe. Step 3 – Sew the Shoulder Seams Place the front and back pieces together with “pretty” sides touching. Make the shoulder edges even and pin. Sew using a 3/8” seam. Step 4 – Sew the Side Seams Place the front and back pieces together with “pretty” sides touching. Make the side edges even and pin. Sew using a 3/8” seam. Step 5 – Decorative Stitching Use a chalk wheel to draw a line that is 1” from the bottom of the dress. Note: Use several rows of decorative machine stitches to add a design just above the 1” line you made. You can also add decorative stitching along the neck fringe. Carefully cut fringe along the bottom edge up to the line you marked. Be careful not to cut your decorative stitching. Step 6 – Hem the Back Turn the back edges under 1/2” . Pin as you go. Sew along the edge. Step 7 – Add Decoration Place a drop of glue on the top of the feather. Slide 3 pony beads over the glue. Set aside and let it dry. Glue or sew this to the center of the top fringe. Your dress is done! Indian Princess Headband ©2007 Carol Steely FunThreads.blogspot.com Supply List 14” decorative ribbon Two 1/2” wide scraps of costume suede for feather dangles Scrap Velcro 6 pony beads 2 feathers Craft glue Sewing supplies Step 1 – Make the Feather Dangles Push 3 pony beads up on to the 1/2” wide suede strip. Add a drop of glue to the end of the fabric. Set the feather on the glue drop and pull the pony beads down over the end of the feather. Set aside to dry. Step 2 – Add the Velcro Fold the end of the ribbon under 1/2” and sew one piece of Velcro to the top of the ribbon. On the other end fold the ribbon under 1/2” and sew the Velcro to the bottom of the ribbon. Try on your doll and adjust the fit as needed. NOTE: the Velcro should overlap when the headband is worn. Step 3 – Add Feather Dangles Place the headband on the doll. Pin the feather dangles where you want them. Adjust and trim the length to your liking. Remove the headband and sew the feather dangles behind the ribbon. The headband is finished! Super easy and fun! I’d love to see what you make.
