Diana’s Patch - Sewing Patterns for Soft Sculpture Dolls, Vintage Dolls and Doll Supplies

I am so THRILLED to announce that I am now a supplier of Dolskin fabric, which is similar to the original Windsor Comfort fabric that was used for Cabbage Patch Kids and similar soft sculpture dolls.  Available on Etsy and Ebay .

  This is one of my favorite patterns.  It was a custom order and I thoroughly enjoyed making it.  The dress was inspired by a vintage dress that I got from an estate sale.  The romper was inspired by one seen on ebay that is believed to have been a packaged romper from an off-brand company.  I changed it a bit by adding a pocket on the bib where there was an applique, and added the triangles and piping on the sides.

I am very excited about a new youtube video series that I just got finished.  It took me longer to edit it than it did to record it.  But, it still took a long time to record because I kept redoing takes, then I had to voice over some of it because of my air conditioner kicking on and ruining the sound.  I had to turn off my ac and record when no one was in the house.  Otherwise, you would have heard kids laughing and jumping around, and a constant hum from the ac.

Everybody loves popcorn curls.  Surprisingly, they are very easy to make and only take about an hour (to make, longer to attach).  You can make them to add to a loop-haired ‘kid, or you can completely reroot one, making loops and popcorns.  Just keep in mind that if you do add them, or reroot, disclose this information when reselling.

 I am now offering Dark Brown Laces in my etsy shop.

  Upon customer request, here is the Pleated Jumper for 20" TRUs.  So quick and fun to make!  It came out absolutely adorable! 

 Many have been asking, and now it's finally in stock again.  The manufacturer was out of stock for a while.  Available on Etsy and Ebay .

  This one took a lot longer than anticipated, due to there being a lot of components to it and me having a lot of migraines this month.  It took me many tries, do-overs, and starting from scratch to get this one drafted.  I'm so glad I finally got it finished!

 I realized not everyone wants to make the animals but may only want the outfits, so I made them available separately. Available on Etsy as paper and digital , and  eBay .

 I found some really cute St. Patrick's Day fabric at Joann's and just had to make a cute little jumper out of it.  Since January is nearing the end, I'm all revved up for St. Patrick's Day.

Introduction Another sweet pattern for Valentine's Day!  This pattern fits the modern tiny 11” newborn, such as surprise twins, 30th Anniversary Newborn, etc.  Because such little fabric is used, you could use scraps and remnants to make these outfits.  They are designed with main and contrast fabric in mind, but could easily be altered to use whatever combination of fabric you desire.  The fabric that I used is regular cotton fabric.  You could also use a light knit, flannel, or a wide range of different fabrics.

If you missed #23, it was the shoes and socks that go with the My Anna Doll Outfits pattern. A customer requested it to be separate, so that's what I did.  Anyway, back to #24--the first pattern of 2021. This is an all-new pattern with unique sleeves! Learn a new technique with these sleeves. A contrast fabric seemingly wraps around the sleeves, all in one piece. Pattern includes instructions for dress, bloomers, headband, and pillow.  Available on etsy as a paper pattern and digital  and  eBay .   as a paper pattern.
