Hello, dear Internet~Land, and Happy New Year 2026! The last few months of 2025 were filled with hopeful intentions and overwhelming schedules. The result was not being able to complete all the patterns I wanted to design in time for the Christmas deadlines. Have no fear, however. They are all still on my list and will be presented at later dates. Today’s character project was designed and put together as a gift for my daughter’s first step into the BJD world. The uniform has pretty normal pieces with details added that are specific to the character, namely the piped edges of the jacket and the hand painted tie.

The video will show my first ever attempt as using black & clear Worbla (thermal plastics) along with colored resin to create magnetic accessory options for the flamed horns, tail, and sword. Come along and see if you would like to try making your own creations using these types of materials!

Greetings, dear Internet~Land. I hope this finds you well and happy. This post contains the last video in our School Uniform Series. The full pattern set is available in the 1/3 Smart Doll Pear size as well as a smaller version that has been reduced to 70% of the original size to be used on a 1/4 scale height. Several of the pieces can be used “as is” for the smaller scale, but the pleated skirt is designed for a fuller figured doll. The skirt (in both scales) can be easily reduced to a smaller waistline by removing some of the pleats to fit and then adjusting the length of the waistband. As always, I suggest trying the pattern on some extra, non-expensive, scrap fabric first in order to fine tune the fit to your particular doll.

Hello, hello, dear Internet~Land! I hope you’re having a lovely holiday season. In this post, we’ll take a look at how to sew the Smock piece in the School Uniform Collection for the Smart Doll Pear body shape. Since the smock is designed to be a loose fitting garment, it could be used for most 1/3 scale doll bodies. I had fun trying out the new gathered/smocking portion of this project. I hope you have fun in your own sewing adventure!

Greetings, dear Internet~Land. Today we have the reduced MSD (1/4 scale) size pattern of the girl school uniform set. As I mention in the video, I have reduced the original Smart Doll Pear pattern to 70% of its original size. It still has the curvy shape as a base, so may need adjusting in the waistline for thinner modeled dolls. Enjoy this video tutorial for sewing the pleated skirt and happy holidays!

Hello, hello, dear Internet~Land! It’s time to get ready for the holidays, so we’re starting our work by drafting a new Ball Gown Pattern Set for the Smart Doll Pear shape body. Come along as I go over my process for a project on this scale. The pattern is also ready now & linked here above the video link.

Greetings, my dear Internet~Land! Today I have a new video featuring some lovely 1/6 scale Fashion Packs by “My Miniature Things” on YouTube. I came across this channel of complete joy making diorama creations of all kinds! I was so tickled to click on a video just 1 hour after it was posted and see the release of these wonderful clothing sets. Fortunately for me, the two that I adored were still in stock. I snatched them up right away, as the whole collection would sell out by the end of the day! I left a link to the channel in my video description. Be sure to check it out for ideas, fun, and inspiration. Now, let’s take a look at my new dolly outfits!

Greeting, Internet~Land! A new lovely lady arrived at my house today. Let’s unbox her and take a look at the 1/3 scale Smart Doll Divergence in Cocoa!

Hello, dear Internet~Land! Here is the video for sewing the Gown & Coat Pattern Set for our lovely, little Kadira by Phyn & Aero. I’m so happy to have an outfit ready that is designed just for her. The pattern set is linked here. It’s not one of my easier sets to sew, but it turned out pretty well. Enjoy & happy sewing!

Happy weekend, Internet~Land! Here’s a video to just spend a while together and have a chat. Nothing that important, but maybe something to play while you go about your daily tasks. Much love!
