Free Pattern to Sew a Gathered Skirt for Barbie and Other Fashion Dolls

By Debbie Colgrove, About.com Guide

This skirt is a great way to learn the basics while sewing a doll skirt for a Barbie or fashion doll. If you don't know a little girl who is using Barbie clothes, consider donating them to a local charity, so a child who is less fortunate will enjoy the new doll clothes.

Materials Needed:

• Print out of the Free Gathered Waist Fashion Doll Skirt Pattern
• Scraps of fabric -- 6" by 18"
• Thread to match the fabric
• A small snap - size 2/0 or 4/0

Note: All directions refer to a 1/2" seam allowance unless otherwise noted.
