I have loved the mori pattern for a long time! I have been waiting a long time for the 1/3 scale! I have many many many Requiem Arts Sesign patterns from the tiny to the 1/3 scale sizes. I have loved all these patterns!
I got another kimono pattern off of Etsy and was very disappointed. So I sprung for this one, which was a good bit more expensive - and I wasn't disappointed. RAD's doll measurements guidelines pointed me to the correct one, and explained where to cut and how to use the pattern for my OB24 doll. I haven't been able to use it yet, but the pattern overall looks good and with the changes for doll scale I should be able to alter it to my needs!
Clear and concise pattern.
I purchased this pattern because none of the ones I made fit well. At this time, I’ve only used the stocking pattern, but it went above and beyond my expectations. It’s a very intuitive design, the instructions included cover all common questions about material. Very well done.
I was able to make some equestrian-style boots for my Ken doll using this pattern; I printed the pattern at 110% as I wanted my boy doll to be able to wear socks in the boots and I was working with the thicker artificial leather. I ended up running the threads under the insole to give the glue a base for the cardboard insole to stick to, but ended up sewing the edges of the boot to the thin foam outer sole then gluing a second layer of foam underneath to create the actual sole. I also put the velcro opening on the inside, knowing it would take more work to get the boots on and off with socks.
I also made a sample boot using fleece, and the pattern worked just fine using the directions as written.
Another A+ pattern. The variations add lots of utility and I will definitely be making more outfits from this pattern.
Another absolute banger of a pattern from RAD!!
If you're on the fence about getting these patterns, do it! They've all been absolutely perfect.
Every pattern from this shop is flawless, I prefer them over anything!
Worked great! I’ve never seen before and was able to use.
I think this is perhaps my 10th patterns from here and they're absolutely fantastic
Instructions were easy to follow and I made my RH doll a skeleton costume! So much fun
I chose to make my boots with no openings and seams to the inside. The fabric I used was really a little stiff, but the pattern makes a great pair of boots.
I haven't tried this yet but I very sure it will be awesome.🥻🪡🧵
