Oh, but the fncy dresses you can make with such little fabric! I wonder if the old patterns still fit....new Barbies have smaller chests now, lol! I used to sew for DDs Barbie, now D neices barbies are sized diffrent!

Made and sold clothes for the 11 1/2 inch Fashion Doll for 16years, found most of the commercial patterns turned out too big for the doll so made my own patterns. Found over the years that the more simple it is the quicker it sold, used the design on the fabric to make it fancy, also used a lot of lycra fabric. Lycra is a little more forgiving if you have taken too big a seam allowance, and it also springs back into shape after being stretched over the head or hips.
