Swimsuit Variations 14.5" -15" Doll Clothes Pattern

Pattern Description: Sew many possibilities! Sew many variations! You can sew swimsuits all summer and still not make all the cute suits you can dream up with the options this pattern provides! One-piece, two-piece, ruffles, off the shoulder, and more! Mix and match the elements to create your own unique look! The pattern includes: Variation 1 & 2 - A one-piece suit with a deep "V" back. This style can be made with a full off-the-shoulder ruffle or with the smaller ruffles just on the arms. Variation 3 - A two-piece top with the regular tank-style straps and a tie-back design. This style utilizes the "V" back element.  Variation 4 - A two-piece set. The top uses the same full off-the-shoulder ruffle as variation 1, but for this design, it's a cropped top and high-waist bottoms.   Variation 5 - A two-piece set that has an added ruffle around the empire waistline of the top. Variation 6 - A two-piece set that is made from the basic tank and low-waist bottoms. For this one, we've used flat picot lingerie elastic instead of the FOE. It's a cute detail and adds some feminine charm! Swimsuit Variations takes the FREE Liberty Jane Basic Swimsuit for 14.5-15" dolls to a wonderful new level.
