Dollhouse Collection pattern release


If you do follow my Facebook group Stargazing Seamstress you will know that we have been working hard for a while now to bring to you the most amazing cloth pad pattern bundle yet!
It is mash-able, flexible, comfortable plenty sizes for all your needs and it comes with fully compatible exclusive fabric prints! Let me explain it further here:

Mix and match design:
Each and every pattern from this collection is optimised to fit together smoothly. There will be 7 original cloth pad shapes

Mother of Dragons (my favourite GOT inspired cloth pad pattern that makes an amazing pad paired with one of Danny prints from Spoonflower)

Cersei (the name says it all for the fans of GOT a real treat paired with our exclusive print! but also a nice round shape that will be easy to sew)

Evil Queen (She is very pointy/ spiky lady, very fierce looking cloth pad)
Paired with a linear zentangle fabric print she makes a perfect villan to your story!


Good Queen (she has more rounded face due to curly locks of hair profile, a nice crown adorns her head and a beautiful full gown covers her body, making her a great back bleeder with full wide back coverage)

Gnome (designed to keep our snow white princess company gnome shape is neat curvy little thing with straight back coverage)

Mermaid (one of my original patterns when the cloth pad doll idea sparked in my shop well over a year and a half ago, a bit of a back story first of those pads were made with freehand embroidered facial features, sea shells details and patchwork topper for hair and tail)
Here is one of my first ones:
Of course now they are available in a beautifully printed fabric topper thru my spoonflower shop and will look more like this:
Princess (she is my favourite of them all just because I have designed her with my daughter in mind. I want her not to be prejudged by whole period shenanigans. For now as she is still little we just play with the dolly cloth pads, Imagining we are mermaids or princesses and it is fun! lol you probably thinking I might be weird but the way I see it those pads should make her transition into womanhood easier since she is getting familiar with the pads in a positive manner from the very young age. Thinking back to my own childhood I was either told off for touching those white spongy/cottony thingies or just shushed to be quiet. That made me hate the diaper like things you had to wear every month!)


Now I have told you a bit about each shape let's start with the awesome features!


This cloth pad pattern has 3 part system meaning there is Head (top of the pad), Shoulders (wings middle of the pad) and Legs (bottom of the pad)
To create a whole pad you will join all those together as per instructions on the pattern. Here comes the really fun part!
You can join any ends of this patterns as you would like! Take a head from the princess pattern, wing from evil queen and bottom from the mermaid and wow totally new creation you have got there!
If you want to stand out from the cloth pad making and selling community this pattern will not let you down!
Also to make things even more interesting you can use two Head pieces or two bottom pieces (on some shapes you might need to blend in the shape by tiny bit).
This means by getting only one pattern (one size of one shape) you will be able to create 3 sizes! Yes that is right! The uneven size numbers will be created using two pattern pieces for head or two for bottom.
Let me explain it better if you purchase an 10 inch princess pattern you can make 10 inch pad, 9inch pad and 11inch pad all in different shapes!

Sizes of the pattern include main sizes: 6 inch, 8 inch, 10 inch, 12 inch, 14 inch and 16 inch
in between sizes: 6.5inch, 7inch, 7.5inch, 8.5inch,  9 inch, 9.5inch, 10.5inch, 11inch, 11.5inch, 13inch, 15inch

Snapped width of this pattern is standard 2.5 width perfect fit for scrundies underwear.

Fabric Prints

If all the shape sizes and options wasn't enough I been gazing at the stars for many nights to bring you the ultimate cloth pad fabric prints!
Each print represents idea behind individual shapes but is also compatible with variety of pattern shapes.
Pad panels are set to work in two group of sizes, size for short patterns from 6 inch to 10 inch and size for long patterns accommodating patterns from 12 inch to 16 inch.
All panels have been checked against the pattern shapes to ensure there is a nice placement available for each of the sizes.
When trying to be more purposeful with the fabric design I have arranged some elements to fall outside the main pattern print area meaning that the fabric off cuts can be used to make a cup spor a wipe or anything else that is small yet will still have an interesting print.

You can preview the fabrics here before they will become available for public sale:
