Your Barbie doll has become capricious and demandsupdate your wardrobe. No problem! To do this, you don’t have to go shopping in all the stores where clothes for Barbie cost a lot of money, but you just need to arm yourself with the necessary sewing supplies and sew clothes for your pet completely free of charge. What will we use to make a doll's wardrobe? Everything is very simple. One convenient and economical option is to use old socks. It is very easy to cut out and sew many styles of dresses, skirts and trousers from them. And if you don’t know how to knit, then old wool socks will serve as an excellent material for imitating knitted items.If you decide to make a skirt for the doll, selecta sock with a suitable color and cut off its toe and heel. You end up with a rectangular-shaped part. By the way, if your sock is a child’s one, you will get a cute miniskirt, and from a large-sized men’s sock you can make an ankle-length skirt, so when choosing socks for these products, take into account what style of skirt you are planning to make. We take our workpiece, having first turned it inside out. We need to hem the upper part of the skirt, about 1 cm, thereby preparing the place where we will thread the elastic. The elastic band for doll skirts should be narrow. By measuring the size of the doll's waist, we determine the required length of the elastic band. We cut off the length of the elastic band as needed. We attach a safety pin to one end and thread it through the resulting seam. We make a small knot, and carefully trim the rest of the ends of the elastic. We turn the bottom of the skirt and hem it. In 10 minutes your Barbie has a wonderful new look. In the same easy way, you can make your own blouse with a collar “collar”. We will need the same rectangle from a sock. In the middle of the rectangle on both sides we make slits that will be armholes for the arms in the proposed model. In order to hem the product less, you can cut a rectangle from the top of the sock, where its elastic is located. This will serve as the bottom part of the product. All that remains is to hem the upper part where the collar is supposed to be. When putting a blouse on a doll, place the upper part in the shape of a collar. It can also be laid out so that the doll’s shoulders are open. From a black sock you can cut out an evening dress with an open back and make a Velcro fastener at the neck or sew on strings.
You can make a stylish sweater with sleeves by cutting the sock rectangle at the bottom into three parts. The two side parts will serve for the sleeves, and the wide middle one is intended for the torso.
You can also use bright socks by cutting them correctly.make them cute pants. Your imagination and ingenuity will tell you during the work process what other options you can come up with for new styles of doll clothes. When you start creating, many options and ideas will naturally come to mind. Experiment, and your doll’s wardrobe will be simply unique.
