    My sister and I grew up when these were the fashions and were blessed with a very talented and loving Mom, who not only made all our beautiful clothes, but outfitted our Barbies and baby dolls, as well. We had the best dressed Barbies in the whole neighborhood, from play clothes to evening gowns and leopard evening capes! Every Christmas, we would each receive a new Barbie or a new doll along with her own brand new, beautifully sewn wardrobe made by our loving mother.
    What a blessing she is to me (she will be 91 this week and is still going strong!) and I treasure every day I have with her to thank her for what a wonderful Mom and role model she has been for me. Happy Birthday, Mom and to any other mothers celebrating this month! 🎂💐

    I always loved sewing Barbie clothes!!! I feel like we were separated at birth, lol!
    Hadn’t thought of this in years, but about 35 years ago, I used to do alterations for a very fancy dress shop. Sometimes, I’d be left with small scraps of silk, leather, or even actual fur. These were just enough to make stunning jackets or tiny trim pieces for my daughter’s Barbie dolls! What a fun memory you revived for me!

    This is my sewing life lol - I learned to sew in 1959 by making clothes for my Barbie🤗. Now I make outfits for BJDs (1:3 scale) & for American Girl dolls!!!
    I certainly don’t use inches with doll clothes - I use centimeters & do a lot of hand stitching!!!
    Love your vintage Barbie coat!!!! I made a 1:3 scale swing coat, & a poodle skirt for AGD

    @teddy-3765 Před 4 měsíci +4

    Yay! Dolly content! It came out beautifully.
    If you're considering making more doll garments, can I suggest you invest in some very thin cotton (like the thinnest of lawns or batiste for example) to use for unseen linings simply to reduce the bulk of layers when it comes to doll scale - not all human-scale fabrics work in doll scale due to the differnce in drape and thickness relative to human vs doll scale, and anything to reduce the thickness of multiple layers really can help with that.

    New to sewing, crafting etc so will need to go back to find your early posts. But I am so grateful to have found myself here. Had told a relative not long ago about loving the 50s/60s although not born then. I felt so alone, since not many understand and rather I just fit todays look, not understanding it's not for me and not really the way I want to be or identify with. I admire folks from the past, more than I do today. Not all of course, but so much about today turns me off that I rather go back in time and be happier there.
