Printable PDF pattern designed to fit 18 inch and 16 inch dolls such as American Girl and A Girl for All Time.
The “Molly Sleeve Variations” pattern will help you create brand-new 1830s gowns with two new sleeve designs. “Sleeve #1” has three rows of ruching near the shoulders, representing the styles of the later 1830s when the upper sleeve began to collapse from the big, ballooned shapes from the beginning of the decade. Sleeve #2 is from the early 1830s, with one row of ruching at the shoulder and a dainty ruffle at the elbow, while still maintaining the large gigot sleeve shape.
These sleeve pattern pieces will fit with not only the “Molly” 1830s Gown pattern but also the “Victoria” 1830s Evening Gown pattern.
This is for the sleeve pieces only, it does not include the dress patterns. Dress patterns are available for purchase in my Etsy shop:
