Piccadilly Sweater and Skirt Bundle 18" Doll Clothes Pattern

Sweater Pattern

I used just the Sweater pattern for a doll cheerleading costume and it worked out great.

Piccadilly sweater

I love the pattern but it is a little tight when made with an actual sweatshirt that I upcycled. I re-made the pattern 10 % larger and it solved the problem- I used the smaller one as an open cardigan type sweater and it worked great- I am a very experienced seamstress /grandma. I love your patterns but suspect that the 2010 AG doll I use for a model may be just a little thicker in the middle- which causes the need to enlarge some patterns. Beautifully created patterns and directions! Thank You.

Cute Outfit

Have made 2 skirts and 3 tops, just to find my “sweet spot” with this pattern. My first sweater fit a little snuggly, as others have mentioned ... while it fit, I worried it might be a little difficult for my granddaughter to dress her doll, especially since it’s not open all the way down the back. I reprinted at 105%, and liked that fit better (although might take 1/2” off the sleeves and hem of my enlarged pieces the next time). First skirt I used a leggings style knit, and wasn’t crazy about the fit ... was large in the waist, maybe from the stretch. Remade with a suede like fabric, and that worked better. Some people mentioned needing to lengthen the skirt ... while I normally like skirts a little longer, in this skirt, the length really is right In my mind. (The skirt pattern piece does look short, but by the time you add the yoke and the waistband, it’s much better!) While the instructions suggest not hemming the skirt, I just think that looks unfinished ... I turned under a very narrow hem, and it seemed to hang fine. All in all, cute outfit and easy to follow pattern.
