So I decided to make my own jointed plushies
I'm just stuck on making them big enough to fit barbie and bratz clothes (I found so many bratz clothes that would look good on my character Jude)

any suggestions? PS. I'm making the pattern myself and don't have any barbie or bratz clothing items on me at the moment

I've been debating on and off if I want a monster high doll or not The more I thought about it the more I liked the idea of having my new characters as dolls so what should I do? I should note I've tried making plushies of my characters before and end up throwing some of them out (like all but one) I also love dollography so thats imporent when deciding this Also I tried repainting a doll before and it looked horrible

buy a monster high doll?

buy a doll to customize (how would I go about it?)

Make an six artist dolls about the size of a pullip?(I have 6 new characters you see) (again how would I go about it?)

so..advice? which is better?

So I bought a shirt and its to large I'll explain with the photos
See the problem is its Waaaaaayyyyyyy to big so how do I make it fit w/o ruining it? I just got it saterday
