Who doesn't love a denim skirt? It's such a versatile wardrobe piece that can be dressed up or down with vests, jackets, tops, and accessories to span all four seasons! The Frog Princess Fashions Jazzy Jean Skirt offers multiple finishing options for maximum appeal.
The skirt front features curved inset pockets with or without topstitching and a working fly closure with topstitching (and stitching guidelines). The back features three styles of traditional patch pockets and a center seam that can be topstitched for added appeal. The skirt offers a flounce ruffle or gathered ruffle finish for a “jazzy” look, or may also be finished as a mini skirt without the ruffle, as shown on the cover.
Customize Your Skirt! The skirt without ruffles will look adorable on your 18” doll, but the ruffle options add ways for you to customize the skirt. For additional interest, try creating a ruffle from lace, tie-dye denim, corduroy, or even a coordinating print fabric. Your doll will be a stand-out wherever she goes.
Embellish with Machine Embroidery!
You can also embellish your skirt with hand or machine embroidery! If you have an embroidery machine, be sure to try out the Frog Princess Fashions Jazzy Jean Pocket Machine Embroidery Design Set©2024. This set features 7 back pocket designs and 6 coordinating front pocket designs plus a bonus fly design for a total of 14 designs in all to give your doll the jazziest jean skirt wardrobe ever!
