Doll's clothes patterns?

[Gemmasmummy]

I would like to make some doll's clothes but I don't want to pay the £7 or so it costs for a pattern. I made a dress from a home made pattern but it was a hit and miss affair. I don't want to buy doll's clothes because I want to use up some of my old scraps of material. I've searched charity shops for ready made clothes to cut up and use as patterns, also for second-hand patterns, to no avail. Any ideas?

eBay? I kow you can get some great kids patterns, so may be worth a shot. And usually cheaper than full retail price!! Otherwise, maybe sacrifice some old clothes to see how they're made and then experiment - that's what I used to do with my Sindys when I was abut a wee one!

did you try your local library? you can always put a request to them and see what they come up with. good luck
