Create Custom Doll Pants

What a doll! Doll clothing designer Chelly Wood teaches easy pattern-making techniques for making pants of any shape or size. Pair this course with Chelly’s “How to Alter Doll Clothes Patterns” to create doll clothes to fit your style by altering patterns you already own.

Learn how to make doll pants patterns using simple tools most people have at home. With Chelly's guidance, you'll learn how to create your own pants sloper, add seam allowances, and add details like a front fly, and even a bib for overalls. In this skill-building workshop, Chelly shares her simple guidelines for creating easy elastic waist pants before teaching you how to design a more tailored pair of trousers with a fly front. Next, she combines methods from these fundamental lessons to help you design doll leggings and overalls.
