Halloween fabric

Calico from Walmart 2021
The smallest print will definitely work for 1/6 scale

I think those are really nice considering I never get any fabrics with spiders on them, at least not intentionally! I like the bigger print with the white background the best.

I’m still tossed between making something for my Dollzone family or putting these with the quilt fabric. I saw the white first then noticed the other two went with it.
Really have to hand it to the designer for this batch because it’s either pure spooky or pure silly for most of these.

Could you do both?

[DollyKim]

Not with only fat quarters of directional prints. The dolls are very particular that way.
Quilting and crafting will probably win out because of the print size. The DZ family already have enough clothes they don’t wear and calico isn’t really them. Won’t say there isn’t a rag doll pattern with a mix and match wardrobe who might benefit.

LOL

...That reminds me. I still have to find someone to sew my vintage rag doll pattern for me. Soooo many doll children waiting to be born.

If sewing machines and I got along I’d be creating cloth dolls left and right. I just want a simple strait stitch that doesn’t go a mile a minute. So much fabric to use up.
We got to live closer to each other, lol, I’d love some crafty friends to hang out with.

Sounds like you'd get along with the antique treadle I learnt to sew on. Some people say you have to sew fast on those, but I've sewn slowly and carefully and she never tangled. Same with the later motorized treadle I used at my honorary grandma's. Now, I only have my hands to sew with, and it takes so long compared to crochet that my sewing projects are getting dusty.

That would be awesome. LOL You might have to put up with all kinds of crochet doll scarves and stuff being waved at you, though.

I thought about making something cottagecore/prairiecore or sort of peasant looking for my Dollzones but the shape of the clothes aren't them. And I already have an apron made of fabric where ghost sheets are hanging up to dry on a clothesline.

As we get more settled I will look for a rag doll pattern, and my "doll skin" fabric, with a mix and match wardrobe to play with. I made a bunch of them years and years ago and it worked out.
