Translation Request – A Doll’s Dress Pattern

June 27, 2013

This translation request was from Kristy way back in February. I have quite forgotten about it! It was quite an unusual pattern to translate, as it is a dress for a doll. It is also quite an elaborate pattern too. I’m not sure which book it is from though, but this was the picture she sent me.

Do any of you sew for your dolls? I sew some for my daughters’ Mell-chan dolls but simple frocks with velcro openings, never elaborate ones like these! I sure hope Kristy’s dress turn out well. 🙂

      Hi Celia, do you know the name of this doll? I am only familiar with Licca, Mell and Popochan. If you have the name I can search for free doll patterns online. I found some Licca chan free patterns but without knowing the dimensions of this doll I can’t tell if it will fit.
