Skirt
Tools and materials on the photos

– paper towels
– stretch fabric for the suit
Fabritac glue
scissors
toothpicks
mini spatula

Easy, non-professional, no-sew doll dressing.
Wrap the doll in a paper towel. Cut everything that is not needed.
Unwrap. Trim to make symmetrical. Fold and secure with pins.

Double-fold the fabric and cut the parts

2015-06-29 09.27.27 2015-06-29 09.27.27

Fold and glue the edges.

On the bottom too.

2015-06-29 09.27.27 2015-06-29 09.27.27
Glue the edges side to side on a thin piece of the same fabric.

2015-06-29 09.27.27 2015-06-29 09.27.27

Same way on all sides

2015-06-29 09.27.27 2015-06-29 09.27.27
Put the skirt on and glue to the doll. Carefully.
DO NOT LET THE THE GLUE TO SOAK THROUCH THE FABRIC. That will leave stains.
Small amount of glue at a time. Dilute fabritac with acetone (the kind sold in hardware stores, not nail polish remover) to make it thinner and easier to work with. Clean up occasional glue spots and strings with brush dipped in acetone.

An hour later. I am high on fabritac glue but the skirt is done.
Nice sleek pencil skirt, just like I wanted.

With a skirt on, Miss Marple was able to make an appearance at the breakfast table.

Almost done.
All is left to do – make her a fancy base, instead of the unfinished one.

Thank you for watching, see you soon.
