Aloha Sarong Skirt 18″ Doll Clothes
Sarong-style skirts are so pretty! However, pleats can appear intimidating—until now. The Aloha Sarong Skirt, by Forever 18 Inches, uses a very easy, non-standard method to mark and create the pleats that are the hallmark of this skirt. If you hate chalk and marking pens, this pattern is for you!
In addition to taking the fear out of pleating, the skirt also features a child-friendly elastic-back waistband for a universal fit, and a faux-wrap overskirt and underskirt. Easy on, easy off, and easy to make! Finally, if you’re new to sewing and want to ease into the idea of a sarong, an easy simplified version of the skirt without the pleats is also included. The comprehensive, step-by-step directions with photos make this PDF pattern easy to follow and sew. Complete the look by pairing this skirt with the Aloha Pleated Top!
This pattern was sized on a recently purchased American Girl Doll (Chest: 11”, Waist: 10-1/2”, Hips: 12 -½”). The key measurement in this pattern is the width of the hips. If your doll’s hips are larger than 12 -½”, you may need to make adjustments to the pattern for an optimal fit. This skirt will also fit Journey Girls dolls.
Recommended Fabrics: Medium-weight quilter’s cotton with a soft drape is ideal. Lightweight versions of twill, denim, and sateen are also suitable.
Supplies Needed:
-One 5” long piece of 3/8” elastic
