Sewing the Body Suit: Step-by-step Instructions
Assemble supplies and pattern pieces. The required fabric is one that has a 4-way stretch and ideally a color that matches the doll’s color. Also, use the appropriate needle and thread for the chosen fabric.
The Classic Smart Doll pattern is free from SMART DOLL – Smart Doll Store for owners of Smart Dolls.
Assembling and Sewing
1. Print the pattern pieces at 100%. Pin on the fabric along the grain. The bottom piece is placed on the edge, as shown in the picture.
2. Pin and sew the back seam, leaving the opening for the stand.
3. Sew the pant legs together as shown after hemming.
5. Sew the bodice, leaving the openings for the arms.
6. Sew the sleeves.
Add the elastic as needed to the torso section and the bust cover for the final steps. I left this step out because this was the prototype.
