* If your doll is skinnier than this you may like to “try” the top on before basting your back loops in place and trim any excess from the centre
back so you can get a nice fit.

Sew your reversible crop dolly top with a: 1cm (3/8”) seam allowance unless otherwise stated.
1
A.
prepare the pieces ...
Iron 1cm (3/8”) to the wrong side along the centre back and at shoulders as per markings on the
pattern piece.
TIP: To check “fit” try on your dolly before step 1b. If necessary trim extra width from centre back
and then iron 1cm (3/8”) to the wrong side of the “new” centre back.
b.
Fold the skinnier ribbon (that will form the back loops) in half and align the raw edges of the
ribbon with the raw top edge of the bodice. Baste to the right side of one of the pieces as per
markings on the pattern piece (ie 1cm 3/8”from centre back fold).
2
sew the pieces together ...
A.
Place your two pieces with right sides together. You can pin them together if you would like
along the bottom and along the top of the bodice.
b.
Sew along the top of the bodice leaving openings at the top of the shoulders. Also sew along the
bottom of the piece. The top of the shoulders and the centre back will be left open.
c.
Clip the curves and then trim the seam allowance back to 3mm (1/8”).

d.
e.
Turn out the right way and iron flat.
f.
Topstitch around the whole top, thereby closing the gaps you left in the centre back and at the
top of the shoulders in step 2b.
Insert your ribbon into the gaps at the top of the shoulders.
OPTIONAL: Use fray-stop to seal the ends of the ribbon.
3
complete your top ...
A.
Separate your piece of hook/loop tape (velco).
b.
c.
d.
Sew one piece to the centre back on one side.
Sew the second piece to the centre back on the opposite side.
