You shouldn't immediately take on evening dresses or stunning costumes. On Barbie dolls or similar copies of her, easy-to-make dresses made of knitted fabric fit wonderfully. We select suitable material or scraps of material from home supplies. Now we make a pattern. It will be the most basic, so even a child can handle it. You need to measure the hip circumference of the doll for whom the dress will be sewn, and divide it in half. The result will be the width of the pattern. Then we form the height of the pattern, measuring the length from the doll's shoulder. On the front part of the pattern, we draw a cutout in the shape of a semicircle. On the back piece, we make a cut to the middle of the pattern. This is where the Velcro fastener will be located. Now you need to cut out these two parts. If the fabric from which you are sewing has a stitched edging, you can use the yoke as a bottom for both halves. If there is no edging, you will have to fold and hand-hem the edges of the dress. Now fold the two pieces together so that they are folded with the right side to each other, and from the wrong side sew the shoulders and sides to the armholes. Where the armholes for the sleeves are, fold the fabric and sew it. After that, turn the dress right side out. Also, while hemming, we form the neck and then sew on the Velcro for the fastener. The dress is ready and all that remains is to choose worthy accessories. They can be a belt, a scarf around the neck, which, by the way, looks great if you put its ends under the belt.
