The place for those OT discussions that you just HAVE to share in a doll themed forum.

Thin minis sounds like the difference between my Dollzone and Orientdoll. We all know how beefy the DZs are, the Orientdoll fits Gene and Tonner clothes but even some of those can be too big at times. Even with the Littles and my pattern making I've had to go with several sizes for the boys but luckily one size does fit most of them. With that I will be able to list bust-waist-hips measurements for each "size" to make it easier to figure which to start with. Kind of like a multi size human pattern thing.

Even now I still cheat and enlarge other doll patterns for my resins, knowing their b-w-h, and some old fashioned math. It' easier to work with a pattern slightly too big and take the darts in than one way too small. But there are ways with slashing etc that you can enlarge patterns to accommodate big boobs. I'll look in to digging out the old composition doll patterns we have, some of which are being reprinted, and see if they will work for any of our dolls.
