Sewing Clothes for Barbie

Perhaps Barbie wants to be President today? Or a doctor, dancer or gardener? Or maybe she is looking for the right outfit for the beach, a walk in the park or a slumber party? Find her dream wardrobe within this book…

The official Barbie sewing book, featuring 50 stunning garments, all with full-size templates and easy-to-follow sewing instructions!

Sew Barbie this cute wardrobe of 50 stylish garments. Sew clothes for every day: jeans and a tie-waist shirt for a picnic in the country, a fleecy jumper and trousers for skiing, a jersey onesie for a sleepover or dungarees for DIY. Or create outfits for special occasions, such as a floral cocktail dress, A-line wedding dress or a formal lacy dress for the theatre. The projects contain step-by-step instructions and real-size patterns for petite, curvy, tall or original Barbie. The techniques used are simple and the outfits can be sewn by hand or on the machine. These are ideal projects for upcycling old clothes or making use of scraps of fabric from your stash.

This book is the English translation of the French original, and the content is taken from two previously published books: Sewing Clothes for Barbie (9781782215974, 2017) and The Barbie Boutique (9781782218661, 2021).
