How to Make a Doll Dress - Sew Along - Pixie Faire Sweet 70s
Follow along as I sew a doll dress from beginning to end! This video shows how to piece together all of the pattern pieces for Keeper's Dolly Duds "Sweet 70s" pattern from Pixie Faire (linked below). Hopefully this video is helpful for those who are mystified by dress patterns. Let me know what you think or what else you'd like to see, because I want to make Sew Alongs a series here.

American Girl Julie Doll Tulip Table and Chair Makeover
มุมมอง 1.1K4 ปีที่แล้ว
I found the American Girl doll Julie's 1970s table and chairs for a great price used, but I couldn't shake the desire to transform the set into a more classic Saarinen tulip table and chairs. The transformation was pretty simple, but you'll need to know a few tricks before you set out on a similar venture! Check out the tutorial to learn more.
Mandi Makes an American Girl Dollhouse
มุมมอง 1.5K4 ปีที่แล้ว
I've enjoyed working on miniatures in 1:12 scale, but now I'm excited to begin working on my biggest dollhouse yet. It's sized for 18" American Girl dolls, which is a dream project for a gal like me who began my AG journey in the early '90s and has been looking for an excuse to get back into it for quite some time. The cabinet frame of the dollhouse is built with baltic birch plywood by my amaz...

    No one should "hate on" you for altering your doll. It's your doll and you're not trying to defraud a potential purchaser by claiming the doll is something it's not.

    Mandi, this was sooo cute and easy enough for a young girl to follow. I would ask, however, that you give an option to the serging for those who don't have a serger. I use my overcasting foot but found that simply stitching a double row of straight stitches works for most wovens. I'm so glad to have seen the cut on the fold for the sleeves as I haven't done or even seen that before. I'm going to do it with my next doll dress so as to avoid hemming the sleeve with I use the burrito method for my lined dresses. I just think this is more in keeping with that method. Thanks so much. Best and stay safe wishes to you and yours.

    Mandi, So fun to see all the love you put into your creations. We have an American Girl Doll, Molly, that was a birthday gift to my daughter 32 years ago. Her legs and arms have come off and I was wondering how you fixed the arms and legs of your dolls. Looks like small rubber bands are used but there must be a trick to attaching both arms/legs. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

    • @MandiMakesMinis
      @MandiMakesMinis 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi June! I love Molly and just started reading the books with my girls. I have found elastic to be a better option than rubber bands. I found a video here that was hugely helpful. I use this technique for all of my doll limb repairs, and have found restringing supplies on eBay. th-cam.com/video/BwR2OTojIec/w-d-xo.html
