This is one of my favorite patterns for dolls. It is easy to size up to fit another doll body type. This has helped me so much and it is also easy to adjust the length I have made this dress into shirts before for some projects.
I sewed these up to fit a classic Smart Doll with default (small) bust and the fit is perfect. I will definitely be sewing more for all my Smart Doll family members.

Very easy and good made pattern to fit smart dolls. Easy to varied with other patters to mix and match.

I am a total beginner at sewing and I was able to make a beautiful skirt by following the RenFair pattern. Fits the doll perfectly.

The pencil skirt looks really great on the doll, and the blouse matches it perfectly! Definitely a good pattern to have for Pear girls.

I made 3 variations on this pattern today. Very happy with the results. I sew everything. Not a fan of glue.

I love this dress pattern! There are so many different styles to make with this pattern! I am a repeat buyer for these patterns! I am so happy there are new ones for me to purchase and make these!

Beautiful design and I'm not surprised! All of the patterns I purchase are! I have been buying patterns from this seller since 2021!

It’s easy to understand, perfect for the newbies. I'm so happy with it, I used it for mh G3 line and it fit perdectly. Thanks !

Great pattern, the fit in the Pear body is spot on. I made the one piece kimono with obi.
