I have a hard time finding smaller sized patterned material for making the garments. As well, finding anything needed for sewing (like velcro, trims, lace, bias bindings, buttons, ect) sized for dolls is tough when you have a severely limited budget to work with (I’m on a disablity pension)… everything is so expensive now! I sometimes find I need to use old clothing in order to be able to make new clothing… which means I can’t always find the same things again if I want to make another of the same item for someone else.
