(I like alliterations...)

So. I'm new to the world of OOAK dolls, and due to their cheapness, availaility and charm, I'm starting with Monster High dolls. Now, I'm an intermediate level eamstress; I make an alter a lot of my own clohes, I can ambroider, my serger is my BFF, etc. But i've never orked on a scale sooo tiny! What are some of the best starter tips for sewing on such a small scale? Hints for sleeves are much apprecited!

I sew everything for tinies by hand. I just can't manage the tiny turnings and seams with a machine. I also cut a double seam allowance for any fabric that will fray and French seam. It's a lot stronger and looks nice.
It's helpful to use fabrics that are more cooperative, like knits and felt, and really simple shapes.
I tried to do a set-in puffed sleeve and had to abandon it and just bind the armhole, so I'm not much help with that, although I expect you could do a simple T shape and just seam the underarm and side in one.
Please post pictures of your stuff. We love pictures,

Get yourself some washable hem tap if you don't already have any, and Fray check.

Hem tape will save your life on seams on such a small scale, but it will be a pain with your needle. Wipe your needle clean after sewing through the tape.
