This woman looks like a real life barbie! Absolutely beautiful

[@heatherreid9787]

I love this, I got my daughter some Barbies recently and was surprised by how expensive the clothes were and they are not that nice. I am going to have a go at making some cute dresses, I will definitely be adding some lace trim and tiny buttons as well. You explained each step really well. Thank you.

[@amandawright6121]

I am a 24 year old and have thought about getting back into sewing for barbie dolls again. It was so fun when I did it as a teen and young girl.

[@christopheralex6471]

Anyone else immediately pulled in by her ✨ gentle voice & accent ✨ I need to buy this book lol

[@kathleenmayhorne3183]

Thank-you for showing this book. I have made Barbie clothes on my machine before. I would recommend sewing the bodice topstitching and most of the skirt hem before gathering the skirt or sewing the pieces together. It is much easier while still flat, particularly if you are still a learner. I would also sew the back seam of the skirt before adding the velcro, but that is just my choice. I will have to try getting this book at the bookshop, I cannot buy things online.

[@klaird_h4727]

Thankfully there are now made to move Barbies with all different body types!❤️

Such a kind soul, I bought 5 of this books

[@margaretmaher9555]

Fantastic, can't wait to start. Waiting patiently for your tutorials on the 18" Generation/American doll. My grandchild is always asking me to make clothes for her. Thanks a lot for all your wonderful tutorials

[@janemartin229]

My mother bought home-fashioned Barbie clothes for us made by a coworker back in the 1960's. I still have them and they were fashionable--so much nicer than the stuff they sold for Barbie. I believe she used tiny snaps for closures.

[@shannenlibres2365]

must have been quite fancy

[@michele8208]

I prefer press studs as the clothes get messed up when the open Velcro pieces stick to other garments

[@trellyyadao4813]

i chanced that book at the library and it caught my interest. i found it a very good book and explains clearly how to sew the dresses. I ended up buying the book to keep with me as reference . Love love it,!

Beautiful job and well explained. I sew but never Barbie clothes oddly enough. My daughter has asked me to see her some so this is an amazing tutorial to know how to make a tea party dress. Thank you.

[@benlines2987]

Are miniature clothing sewn mostly by hand and what is the most common stitch to use?

[@SearchPress]

Hi Ben, yes you can sew dolls clothes by hand and the most common stitches are overlock stitch, whipstitch, backstitch, split stitch, satin stitch, knotless stitch, running stitch and the french knot stitch

[@wlwn]

Very good video. I love it.

[@tallulahdurand]

Would this work for a 90s Hasbro Sindy doll? From what I remember from my childhood, Sindy was slightly broader than Barbie. I just got a beautiful Sindy from ebay but her dress is old and not so great. I'd love to learn to make her a new one.

[@sparkleprizm199]

I think it would fit because the pattern has different sizes

[@beautyeyes7365]

I love Barbie! I really want to create a dress for one of my dolls. I’ll look for this book and get started 💖 I’m not an expert in sewing though but I’ll learn.

Thanks 👍 no one has luck like this ask today answer today thanks

[@donnafound6480]

Thanks for the reply. I saw the rectangle piece but I don't understand how that small rectangle translates into a big skirt. The bodice piece is bigger than the skirt piece. I am baffled. I noticed several of the patterns have this rectangle piece for the skirt.."In the park skirt" on page 8 and the Princess dress on page 57, 58. I am baffled.

[@soapychikin]

Love the video 💝

[@NickiUn]

I am confused with the top of "a night in town'. Why is the ribbon around her neck what has to go on the top arm ends missing in pattern and discription? How would you manage?

[@SearchPress]

Thanks for your comment. In the "A Night in Town" outfit, a 10cm (4in) piece of silver piping ribbon is attached to the upper edge of the top, with 1cm (½in) wide armholes left below the halterneck on each side. So, the piping ribbon, which goes around the Barbie's neck, connects the front and the back of the top. I hope that helps, if you need any further details please do get in contact with us.

[@t-hobbies2181]

Love​ your​ video

[@RocketChild]

I find my sewing machine swollows up small pieces of fabric and gets jammed. Do you have any advice for that? Wast the small square of fabric you used supposed to stop that?

[@SearchPress]

Debbie uses a small piece of tear-away stabiliser under the start of the seam to prevent the fabric from getting caught up in the feed dogs, or try holding onto the threads at the back of the needle as you start sewing, that should work!

[@donnafound6480]

I was going to make the At the Theater dress on page 82. I don't seem to see a pattern piece for the skirt. Has anybody else noticed this or did I miss some instruction for the skirt. Help!

[@SearchPress]

Hi Donna, the pattern piece you need should be on page 84 beneath the bodice piece. It appears as a rectangle. One should be cut in tulle and one in taffeta.

[@donnafound6480]

@@SearchPress I saw that but how does that one little rectangle become a full long skirt

[@donnafound6480]

It is smaller than the bodice.

[@lunawolfcrossing]

Would this book be helpful for using with monster high dolls? Thank you

[@sarahh6]

Yeah you'd just have to change the proportions though

[@c42cly]

Great demonstration. Can I ask what the small piece of fabric is ' for catching the thread' at the start of joining the dress circle pieces. Love the idea of hand tacking before sewing! Wonderful

[@DanceswithDustBunnies]

Very often with narrow seam allowances, a machine will suck the fabric into the needle plate, causing a jam. if you start on a wider piece of scrap fabric, it keeps that from happening.

[@Kate98755]

also use a fabric at the end of the seam and you’ll use less thread,they’re called ender and leaders

[@izzybee_IEL]

when you made this it was my birthday

[@winnersneverquit.4191]

I once made a barbie dress, but I don't know how to use patterns.

[@lecaarts491]

Oi de onde você é

[@lajmh]

My question is in the reverse. How can a I (or any skilled sewer) recreate Barbie's outfits to fit an average size adult So a very real average size female human being can wear the exact(ish) same outfit as Barbie. It is my observation that many of Barbie's outfits are more stylish than any human female.

[@SearchPress]

I put it to Debbie and here's the advice she has for us! 'I'm afraid I don't think Barbie's clothes would be suitable for re-sizing to a human, if they were I would have no idea where to start! But I'm sure there are some stylish patterns for full-sized women out there somewhere!'

[@ThunderStruck15]

I feel the same way about the Blythe dolls. Some of those clothes are ridiculously beautiful

Hi, no the clothes only fit Barbie dolls

[@kathynorton4353]

I have this book. I was extremely disappointed at the quality of the patterns and the lack of fitting detail.

[@a.m.308]

What sewing book for doll clothes do you recommend instead? Especially for beginners?

[@kathynorton4353]

This whole video made me cringe. NO pressing, sloppy sewing technique, almost no use of markings to line things up...You should be pressing as you go after every seam for one thing. Most of your seams are sewn in the wrong direction... that is NOT the correct way to make a circular hem either.
