Thinking of making some BJD slopers (patterns)

Feb 10, 2019

    1. I'm thinking of making some slopers* for BJD's, so that people can make easy patterns for their dolls. Unfortunately the only doll sizes I have right now are PukiPuki, Doll Zone Fox Boy (not really a size more of a body type), and a squishy vinyl ~60cm doll so I think I'd only really do it for the Puki's until I get my Luts Kid Delf Kiwi sculpt doll in/others down the road. What do you guys think?

      Also a side note: I'm currently in college so there's no set time of when I would be doing this, other than as soon as I get the time/motivation to do so.

      *a sloper is a basic pattern that you can manipulate using the flat patterning method to make other patterns in different styles. Like a shirt front, back, and sleeve, skirt front and back, etc. I know it's a bit archaic now that there are digital pattern programs like Optitex (that, sadly, are going to be really expensive) and it's not as big a skill as it used to be but there are probably instructions on how to manipulate a pattern that are only a quick Google search away

    3. Great idea, I have the similar set of patterns for Zaol size and it’s very useful

    4. I only have 2 days of class now so it shouldn't be too hard to do. A full day of classes and a lab where I don't have to stay the full time so we will see
