Faux Button Jumper for 13″ – 14″ Dolls
The Faux Button Jumper, by Forever 18 Inches, for 13″ – 14″ Dolls such as Les Cheries®, Little Darlings®, Paola Reina®, and Hearts For Hearts® is a simple pattern with detailing that looks complicated–but isn’t! It looks like it has a working front placket, but looks can be deceiving. The placket is all show, and the jumper actually has only three main pattern pieces, plus cut strips for Straps and Optional Pockets. Option 1 is an Easy-level project for newer seamstresses or those who want quick results (no closures, no lining, no facing, no worries!). Option 2 is slightly more advanced, and is finished with a lining to accommodate lighter-weight fabrics. Either option can be made with or without the optional pocket(s).
The directions have been written comprehensively with many explanatory details for those who are newer to sewing. An experienced seamstress will probably be able to construct the Jumper just by reading the instructions highlighted in bold text. Happy sewing!
