Sewing Transforming a human pattern into bjd pattern

Resizing Human Patterns

Pattern Creation from instruction sheet - for fashion dolls

Re-sizing Patterns For Your BJD

translate a clothing pattern to doll proportions

These are all variations on Dale Rae's instructions.

 

The first one also exists as a thread here on DoA, for easy subscribing/bookmarking (and it contains some of the results of people's work):

/threads/resizing-human-patterns-tutorial.513354/

 

I do not have a printer at home nor a scanner. However, I DO have graph paper, measuring tape and a LOT of sewing experience LOL so I just pretty much recreate the pattern to fit my doll, on the graph paper (often this works much better than using scanners etc to accurately transfer since dolly dimensions are often NOT the same as the human patterns).

 

I think I might try that too because I don't have a printer at home. Let me know how it works for you and I will try it as soon as I get the graph paper.

Thank you so much!!

 

Thank you so much

 

I will sometimes do the pattern alterations on my computer then trace the pattern on a piece of paper. I had to do it recently because my printer ran out of ink.

 

This will be so helpful, thank you!!

 

Dale Rae's instructions are the best out there for scaling down. Her tutorials are very well written with great photos.

 

Thank you! Just what I was looking for!
