7 Coats ~ 7 Colors BJD Pattern Collection

Hello, dear Internet~Land! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Here in the US, we are enjoying our Independence Day holiday, so I’ve had an extra day off work. It’s given me time to finish up the new pattern collection and get it formatted for posting! I was trying to keep the images away from the sides of the paper (to help out those who use A4 size), but many of the pieces needed to be positioned right on the edges to help conserve paper. Even with that effort, it still ended up being a 41 page file! To make it easier to match the correct pieces, I’ve done something new. I added the image of the completed garment to each piece needed to sew it. The only exception is the bonus button-up shirt. I was too deep into placing images to draw out that one (since it was added later), so it’s just labeled like normal. Hopefully this will make organization of your collection much smoother. I’m also going to try to cut some of my own fabrics this weekend, so we can get to sewing. This first version fits 1/3 scale male BJDs with a slim-medium build, and was designed specifically with the Basic Pattern Set for the MiroDoll 66cm male body. When making the pants for fellas with a little more thickness, just size the back darts to your specific doll before adding the waistband. This allows for a more versatile selection of sizing. I’ll be working on 1/4th and 1/6th scale versions as well in the next few weeks. In the mean time, you can enjoy this larger version and size it down on a copy machine yourself if you are needing the smaller sizes right away. Happy sewing!

New Series ~ 7 Coats, 7 Colors BJD Pattern Collection

Greetings, dear Internet~Land! It’s time to introduce the next project series. The new collection will include pattern pieces to make seven different, newly drafted coats, four shirts, and three pair of pants. Come along for the video to see an overview of all the garments and corresponding fabric choices.

Unboxing a New Addition to my Crew

Hello, hello, dear Internet~Land! Today we have a new unboxing video for a female BJD sculpt from one of my favorite companies, Angell Studio. After we review that lovely lady, we’ll take a look at a cute little dolly collection I stumbled across at Dollar Tree. At the end of the video I also give a brief announcement for our next project series. Enjoy!

Theme-Park Bounding 6 ~ Headbands!

Greetings, dear Internet~Land! I received a message asking about the assembly process for the headbands in this series. I can’t believe I forgot to include them when making the clothing items. So, here to officially finish out the project, is a video showing a couple different ways these can be put together. Enjoy!

Theme-Park Bounding 4 ~ Finishing Frosty Pieces

Hello, Dear Internet~Land! We’re back to finish up the last pieces for the Frosty style part of our collection. This part of the series included a total of nine pieces: back-pack, oversize snowflake t-shirt, snowflake capri length pants, snowflake pocket hoodie, wide leg shorts, lacey leggings, button-up blouse, three tiered skirt, and sparkle white full length pants. Below are the links to the pattern set in both SD (1/3 scale) and MSD (1/4 scale) sizes as well as sewing video number 4 in the series.

Theme-Park Bounding Part 3

Hello, dear friends in Internet~Land! I hope all is well and that you’re ready for the next installment of our Theme-Park Bounding outfit adventures. This video will feature two pieces for the “Frosty”/”Snow Queen” set. I will link the SD (1/3) size and MSD (1/4) size patterns here again in this post above the video link. We still have a lot of items to sew, so stay tuned!

Theme-Park Bounding 2 – Fabric Choices

Hello, hello, Dear Internet~Land! Along with a video to look over our fabric selections for this project, I have also put together the pattern in the smaller MSD (1/4 scale) size for your convenience. It is reduced to 70% of the original draft, and should be workable for a variety of 1/4 scale dolls. I will post the PDF pattern link with an image of the pieces below the video link. Enjoy & happy sewing!

Theme-Park Bounding 1 – Pattern Assembly

Hello, dear Internet~Land! Today we’re starting a new project series. This will be a pretty large pattern collection to produce lots of different looks for your third scale BJD girls. They’ll be ready to explore any theme park dressed to reflect their favorite characters! This first post of the series will feature the video to go over all the pattern pieces in the set. The PDF link to the FREE printable pattern will be at the bottom of the post. Let’s go!

Tips, Tricks, & Techniques 1: Inside-out Seams

Greetings, dear Internet~Land! Today we have a new little category of video subjects. It’s just going to be a collection of various things I have learned or tried over the years. I hope some can be helpful and inspiring as you continue on your creative journey. Please feel free to ask questions or chat among yourselves in the comments (whether here, on Facebook, or on YouTube). I’ll try to get back to any that are directly sent to me, and if I don’t know an answer, maybe another imaginative soul in the community will! The pattern set for this project was posted quite a while ago, but I will repost the link below the video to make it easier and quicker to find. It is available in both 1/3 and 1/4 sizes. Enjoy!
