This is the perfect blank canvas for your creativity! It’s so fast and easy you can make
several and spend extra time giving it decorative touches: Use contrast bias and turn
to the outside for a waistband. Add ruffles or trim at the bottom or all over, piece the
front from different fabrics, add cargo pockets, sew a fake seam and zipper in the
front for a denim skirt, embroider/appliqué/iron-on/silkscreen matching motifs onto a
plain skirt to match the top, etc.
Do an image search for “A-line skirt” and you might find even more awesome inspiration!

Sew side seams, add trim to bottom or hem. Use bias to face the waist.

Fold in back edges to fit your doll

Apply Velcro (or closure of choice) and seam up the back. Now go make more! 

Copy/Print this at 77% to fit
Hearts for Hearts dolls

You may want to shorten this by an inch or two for Sasha!
