Wow, what a year we’ve all had! It certainly has brought its challenges and I’d like to acknowledge those who were diverted from making doll clothes for a time so that you could sew face masks in an effort to keep family and friends safe.

Does turning tiny tubes frustrate you? Then you’ll love this method. One of the new ladies in my Facebook Sew and Share group recently purchased my How to Make Doll Clothes Video course and was posting photos of each of her finished bonus patterns.

So I suggested she try the following method next time as it’s much easier than turning tubes after stitching the seam.

Not to blow my own horn, but I often receive wonderful emails from customers who are either thrilled that they have finally learnt how to sew, excited to have rediscovered their love of sewing through making doll clothes, or just so happy that they don’t have to try and understand complicated instructions and diagrams because they can just follow along with my videos.
