Vendor: Frog Princess Fashions
Type: Machine Embroidery Design
Price: 4.99

Machine embroidery has never been more popular on clothing. Taking advantage of this exciting trend, the Ruffles and Glam©2021 Machine Embroidery Design Set by FROG Princess Fashions, features 12 unique designs, with thread options, and varying color combos, providing the Ruffles and Glam PDF sewing pattern a glamorous option for embellishment.

While butterflies are not unusual, creating one in the right scale for an 18” doll requires an eye for detail that doesn’t make the embroidery too stiff while maintaining the characteristics and design elements of a traditional, full-size motif. The butterflies in this design set are all digitized with these design principles in mind using professional digitizing software. This versatile set includes four types of beautiful butterflies: the first is a fill butterfly, suitable for use on center back of a woven or light interfaced knit design. The second is a redwork design, best used on a solid, lightweight woven fabric and cute as a purse front, the third is an appliqué, which is suitable for use on most fabrics, including interfaced knits, and the fourth is a free-standing lace design, which would be beautiful on a lace jacket, or made of a light thread on a dark solid woven. It would be especially stunning in a metallic thread. It may be machine stitched as a stand-alone design and hand-stitched to a specialty fabric as a patch, if desired, or simply stitched directly onto the fabric for an equally lovely result. All four back designs come sized to fit the 4x4 hoop, or with the back panel for perfect placement, fitting in the 5x7 hoop. The quilted sleeve designs require an 8x8 or 6x10 hoop. The butterfly charm fits a 4x4 hoop or smaller and includes a loop at the top for hanging.

Use one or several of these designs to embellish your jacket or other 18” doll garments and accessories. These designs would also be lovely embellishments on all types of accessories, including pillows, doll quilts, and stuffed furniture!

The beauty of the large jacket back designs is that they are centered on the pattern pieces, leaving out all guesswork in placement, for perfect results every time. No need to test-stitch on scraps, turning every which way to find the best layout, or repeatedly trying to place the designs yourself. This design set includes pattern piece outlines for perfect placement within the seam allowances. You may stitch the pattern piece outlines with thread, cutting directly on the thread outlines, or simply stitch around them without thread and cut on the needle piercings.

*Note: only the sleeve and jacket back panel piece are included in the machine embroidery design set.

Vendor: Genniewren
Type: 18 Inch Historical
Price: 8.99

This pattern by Genniewren Designs, is an 18" doll-sized recreation of the Naval Commander's full dress uniform worn by Prince Charles on his wedding day back in 1981.

The pattern includes a frock coat with a cutaway front skirt, slim-fitting military style pants, and several accessories: a ribbon sash, white gloves, a belt, aiguillettes and a sword. Two styles of gloves have been included to fit most shapes of doll hands. The uniform look is completed with a navy and white cap, made from the Military Style Cover pattern which is published separately.

The fully lined frock coat has a slightly extended shoulder line supported with shoulder pads, contrast epaulettes and a contrast collar. It features an asymmetric front fastened with snaps. The coat back bodice is sewn in three parts for a traditionally tailored look. The coat skirt is pleated and vented at the center back and has mock pocket flaps at the side back. Shiny brass buttons provide the military flair required for a prince's uniform.

The matching belt features two lines of gold braid, and a large shiny button used as a decorative buckle. The sword is attached to the belt using gold braid and cords.
The slim-fitting pants are military style with a faced waist instead of a separate waistband, a front fastening fly front, and gold braid on the side seams. The fit is enhanced by darts at the back waist.

The sash is made from ribbon and features a bow and a small medallion. The medals are created from ribbon and sequins or stamp tags.
The aiguillettes are made from two different sizes of gold cord, and the conical aiguille ends are created out of gold foil.

The sword is crafted from wood, flexible plastic, wire, beads, foil and vinyl or felt and features gold braid to represent the figured molding on the scabbard.

This pattern includes hand embroidery designs for the wings and the two patches on the front of the coat. A set of machine embroidery designs for these is also available.
Information is included to help with sourcing trims and other supplies needed to complete the items in the pattern.

Be sure to check out the companion Royal Wedding 1981 patterns for The Bride and Diana's Bouquet.

Recommended Fabrics: The coat and pants should be made from medium weight woven fabric such as cotton drill (the fabric used for aprons) or lightweight woolen fabric. The gloves are designed for four-way stretch lycra dancewear fabric.  

Supplies Needed:
Coat and Pants:

• One yard (meter) of medium weight woven fabric;
• Half a yard (meter) of lining fabric (I used a poly/silk habotai lining fabric as it is very fine and helps to reduce bulk at the seams);
• 9" x 3" (23cm x 7.5cm) gold satin fabric for the epaulettes;
• 18" x 3" (46cm x 7.5cm) white twill fabric for the collar;
• 12" x 3" (30.5cm x 7.5cm) lightweight fusible interfacing (you will need extra interfacing if you choose to interface the coat bodice as some of the testers did);
• 4" (10cm) square gold satin fabric for epaulettes;
• 22 gold buttons approximately 3/8" (9mm) in diameter (slightly smaller will work better than slightly larger);
• 2 tiny 1/4" (6mm) flat gold buttons for the epaulettes;
• 6 snaps 1/4" – 3/8" (6-9mm) in diameter;
• 3 yards (meters) of gold soutache (Russia braid) or satin ribbon 1/8" (2-3mm) wide;

• 3" (7.5cm) of 1/2" (1.2cm) wide hook and loop tape (both sides) for the pants fly front fastening.

Gloves:

• 12" x 4" (30.5cm x 10cm) or 6" x 8" (15cm x 20cm) white four-way stretch lycra fabric.

Accessories:
Belt:

• 1 yard (meter) of ½" (1.2cm) wide navy grosgrain/Petersham ribbon;
• One 3/4" (2cm) diameter gold button (flat backed) for the buckle;
• 1 yard (meter) of 3mm wide soutache (Russia braid) or 3mm wide satin ribbon for the trim;
• 1" (2.5cm) length of 1/2" (1.2cm) wide hook and loop tape for the belt closure.

Sash:

• 1 yard (meter) of 1" (2.5cm) wide royal blue double-sided satin ribbon;
• One snap approximately 3/8" – 1/2" (9mm – 12mm) diameter;
• one flat oval bead approximately 3/4" (2cm) long; and a small seed bead to make the "medal" on the sash bow.

Medals:

• 2¾" (7cm) of approximately 3/8" (9mm) wide striped ribbon in two different colors;
• Two sequins or circular stamping tags approximately 1/4" - 3/8" (6-9mm) in diameter;
• One small brass (lingerie) safety pin - maximum length ¾" (2cm);
• A small piece of felt 3/4" x 1/4" (2cm x 6mm);
• One small Maltese-style cross charm, approximately ¾" x ½" (1.7cm x 1.2cm) including the hanging loop;
• A length of 1/8" (3mm) wide red or burgundy ribbon sufficient to tie around the doll's neck.

Aiguillettes:

• 22" (56cm) fine gold rope-twist cord approximately ⅛" (2-3mm) diameter;
• 12" (30.5cm) gold rope-twist cord approximately ¼" (5-6mm) diameter;
• 1.5" (4cm) gold ribbon approximately ⅜" (9mm) wide;
• Matching gold thread to bind the cord ends;
• Fray blocking fluid;
• Four 4" (10cm) square metal (not plastic) gold foil chocolate wrappers or you can use gold Washi craft tape if you prefer;
• Craft glue.

Sword:

• 1 wooden tongue depressor/wax applicator approximately 6" x ¾" (15cm x 1.8cm);
• 7.5" x 4" (19cm x 10cm) black pleather or marine vinyl for the scabbard;
• 6" (15cm) wire or one large paperclip flattened to give this amount of wire;
• One 1/4" - 3/8" (6mm – 9mm) bead with a hole large enough for the wire to thread through;
• 4" x 2" (10cm x 5cm) soft flexible plastic (I used a piece from a hand lotion tube);
• 8" x 4" (20cm x 10 cm) aluminium foil to shape the handle
• Approximately six 4" (10cm) square metal (not plastic) gold foil chocolate wrappers;
• One gold D-ring with a half inch aperture (or wide enough to fit your chosen military braid);

• 12" (30.5cm) of 1/8" (2mm) diameter gold cord;
• Two tassels (optional);
• Craft glue.

NOTIONS AND TOOLS YOU MIGHT FIND USEFUL

• A pressing cloth is necessary to prevent shine spots on your fabric when pressing bulky seams. I use a silk organza pressing cloth as it is semi-transparent and allows me to check alignments of seam allowances etc. before pressing.
• A mini iron is useful for getting into those tiny areas when pressing the seams on your doll's clothes. These can be found in most quilt stores, or online.
• A sleeve board is ideal for pressing doll's clothes rather than using a standard size ironing board. A mini tailor’s ham and sleeve roll will also help. If you do not have a small sleeve roll, you can use a tightly rolled washcloth inserted into the sleeves when pressing.
• Tailor’s chalk, chalk pencil, dressmaker’s carbon paper, washable or air dry marker pens for transferring pattern markings to the wrong side of your fabric.
• Fray blocking fluid for sealing seams, edges and cord ends.
• Clothes pins to hold the sword scabbard in place until the glue dries.

Vendor: My AG Doll Creations
Type: 18 Inch Boy Doll
Price: 4.99

A dear friend of mine has the most beautiful dance regalia. One of the things he wears often for special occasions is his ribbon shirt. I asked if he would mind if I copy it for my boy doll, so here is my version of Nick's Ribbon Shirt. Although my friend only wears the head and knee bands for dancing, I included them in the pattern instructions.

Nick's Ribbon Shirt is a fun pattern to embellish so use your imagination. There is so much you can do with ribbons or other trims. Nick's original shirt was a plain blue so no worries about having Native fabric just let the ribbons or whatever trim you use be the decorations. One tester made the shirt in a flowered linen fabric and added lace to the sleeves at the cuffs for a beautiful girl's tunic….it was so cute. So please have fun with this pattern and enjoy!

Vendor: Dollhouse Designs
Type: 18 Inch Historical
Price: 6.99

The Far East was very influential to Western fashions in the early 20th Century. Kimonos were commonly seen in the films and fashions of the 1930s & early 1940s. This design by Dollhouse Designs is a nod to the timeless beauty of traditional Japanese clothing and this very stylish period in US fashion. The Kyoto Robe is a fusion of influences that is easy to make and looks wonderful on your favorite dolls, historical or modern.

Featuring a pleated belt with a sweet bow in back and three collar styles, this design can be made in a variety of ways. The flared sleeves feature a contrast facing that can be worn folded back, left extra long, or standard length. Choose your favorite robe length from short, long, or extra long and make it up in woven cotton or silky fabrics, including rayon. Quilters cotton prints with satiny contrast looks especially pretty.

• View A has an asymmetrical collar, or can be made with 2 full lapels
• View B has a more traditional kimono neckband collar, called an eri. It can also be made with no collar, using only the facing which can be more of a boyish style with the straight belt. 
  

It can be made from woven cotton or silky fabrics, or even knits. I use mostly cotton prints with silky or satiny accents.

Bonus: Little eye shade is included as a bonus.

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

Vendor: Genniewren
Type: 18 Inch Historical
Price: 8.99

This pattern, by Genniewren Designs, contains everything you need to make a modern-style Welsh costume: blouse, skirt, apron, bonnet, Welsh hat, and shawl.

• The blouse has lace applied to the front, gathered lace at the collar, a center back fastening and long sleeves with elasticized ruffles at the wrist. 
• The skirt features unpressed pleats and a hip yoke with an elasticized waist for easy fit. Instructions are included for applying a straight or chevron band of ribbon to the skirt if desired. 
• The rectangular apron is gathered at the waist and ties at the back. Sometimes you will see shorter, curved edge aprons (waitress-style) on purchased costumes, but the rectangular shape is more traditional and is required for school dancing. 
• The shawl is a simple square of fabric, with fringed edges. The most common type of fabric used for modern Welsh costumes is red and black plaid, but Paisley print shawls are also worn in some areas. 
• The bonnet is cut in one piece. Lace is applied to the front edge that surrounds the face. The ruffle is created by attaching narrow elastic a little distance from the curved hem edge. Narrow ribbons are used as ties. 
• The Welsh hat is made from felt and is fully lined. It is based on the modern conical style of Welsh hat. This hat is sewn together rather than molded. The hat can be stiffened with a card, template plastic or heavyweight interfacing. Lace can be applied to the underside of the brim of the Welsh hat, or the bonnet can be worn under the hat. Either is acceptable. Some schools wear just the bonnet for dancing, others wear just the hat, so it is largely a matter of personal choice whether you apply the lace or wear the bonnet under the hat. 

The style of Welsh costume you can make with this pattern is based on the clothing worn by school girls on St David's day.

So, whether she wants to explore her Welsh heritage, or to enjoy a little school dancing on St David's day, your 18 inch doll is sure to love this charming ensemble.

FABRIC RECOMMENDATIONS:

• Blouse: lightweight woven cotton or poly-cotton blends, such as batiste, lawn, chambray, or shirting-weight fabrics.
• Skirt: medium-weight woven cotton fabric, such as quilter's cotton, gingham, broadcloth, poplin, percale or sheeting fabrics.
• Apron: lightweight woven cotton or poly-cotton blends, such as batiste, lawn, chambray, or shirting-weight fabrics. Traditionally the aprons were made from homespun fabrics, gingham is often used as a substitute for dance school uniforms.
• Shawl: light to medium-weight woven fabric with a soft drape, such as lawn, chambray, or challis. Checkered fabric such as gingham or houndstooth is traditional in some parts of Wales, and Paisley style fabric is traditional in others.
• Bonnet: cream, ivory or white lightweight woven cotton or poly-cotton, such as batiste or lawn.
• Welsh Hat: Felt. Acrylic craft felt is acceptable but may not be as hard-wearing as felt with a high wool content.  A medium weight woven fabric is suitable for the lining.  For the stiffener, you will need home dec heavy weight interfacing, card or template plastic.

This pattern is perfect for horse lovers and doll play.  The horse is 20” tall measuring from the ground to top of the head and 14” measuring from ground to withers (back.) An optional internal wiring allows for posing and supports up to three 18 to 19 inch dolls.  Three options are suggested for mane and tail materials: long pile fur, yarn, or hair extension weaves.  The PDF sewing pattern Includes educational information about horse markings, and adoption of horses into the Native American culture.

Suggested Fabrics:         

It is best to make the body out of a low pile upholstery fabric which has just a little bit of give. You may also select velvet, but I would not suggest making your first horse out of this type of materials because it does not have the same amount of give and tends to slip when sewing. Stretch velvet or other stretch fabrics would not be appropriate for this pattern.

To make the hoofs, a faux leather is suggested. 

To make the inside of the ears, use a felt color that is a few shades lighter than the color of your horse’s coat.

Mane and Tail:

You can use a long pile faux fur, any type of yarn, or add synthetic hair extensions. Each option creates a beautiful horse.

Add Markings:

Pictures of markings can be added to match a specific bread of horse.  

Supplies Needed:

Body: 3/4 yard fabric

Hoofs: 1/8 yard fabric

Mane & Tail:

-1/8 yard long pile faux fur or

Option 2: skien yarn or

Option 3 package of synthetic hair extensions

Inner Ear:  1 felt square

Notions:    

• Matching thread
• 2 each 15mm animal eyes
• 4 wire hangers (optional)
• 1 roll of duct tape (optional)
• 30 oz of fiber-fill (for tightly packed filling or 20oz for looser fill)

II’ll never forget the trip we made to Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. All the Bavarian towns we visited were so charming. The shops were full of cuckoo clocks and delicate chocolates. The restaurants each had a huge variety of local ales. I especially enjoyed seeing the tour guides dressed in their dirndls. There were so many styles, each one special.

These shoes are similar to short boots, perfect for hiking the Bavarian hillsides, protecting feet on rough terrain and keeping toes warm where the weather can change quickly.

And, of course, the hills were alive with music and cows with little bells, but we didn’t see any of the iconic Edelweiss.
That trip was the inspiration for this sweet Bavarian-style dress, by FROG Princess Fashions. The design is made in one piece: a dress with a blouse-like sleeves, a bodice that also poses as a vest, and a contrasting skirt, with a detachable little apron worn over it all. The entire set is easy to make and is so sweet trimmed in lace, rick-rack, or embroidery. It’s versatile, too, and can be made with short puffed sleeves, or longer, gathered bishop sleeves, with or without the apron, and with a contrasting bodice (vest) or not.
And since we didn’t see any Edelweiss, I made some! The Edelweiss custom set of embroidery designs from Frog Princess Fashions can be used to embellish the vest front and back, the center of the sleeves, and the hem of the dress and apron. And don’t forget to look for the Edelweiss machine embroidery sets to make coordinating shoes and dress designs!
