Let's make this beautiful hoodie for the most famous doll. Very easy to do besides fast. With this tutorial there is no way to miss.

Place the pieces of pattern on the fabric and add seam allowance.

Transfer the pocket markings to the indicated location, use tailor's chalk or own fabric pen. Fold the edges of the pocket to the inside out side and fish as shown in the photo above.

Sew all the sides of the pocket.

I used felt fot make the letters To make the letters. If you do not have a stylus, use the scissors to cut.

I used Gutermann glue for bonding materials, applications, leather, PVC etc. Your collage is fast and permanent. Washable at 40c. This glue we use a lot in Europe to make bars on curtains and finishes in party dresses with front slits.

Gutermann creativ is my favorit glue,

I took advantage of the print of a sublimated flap and cut out the figure of the minie and glued it using the same glue.

As this glue is fast there is no need to wait long for drying. With this you can already join the shoulders of the blouse with a straight seam or straight in the overloque as shown in the photo below.

Sew the hood as shown in the photo.

Sew with the overloque or zigzag around the hood opening and fold inside out to the dotted lines.

Make a small opening where you will find the figure of a circle. The cord will be placed in this place. I used a thin strip of mesh (cut a thin strip and stretch it to the maximum until it is rolled) you can use lycra also if you do not have the cord.

Place the center of the hood over the center of the rear neckline and contour the entire circumference by holding with pins as shown in the photo just below.

Sew and overloque.

Fold the seam around the neckline down and fish like in the photo.

Let's now sew the sleeves. Find the center of them, mark and attach this with the center of the shoulder. Start by pining from center to right and from center to left.

Band: Fold the band in half in the direction of length and sew slight stretched.

To sew the band do it on the straight and then on the overloque to give finish.

Now it's time to close the sides. Rewind the end of the sleeve so that the seam does not open at the time of wearing.

Close the sides of the ribana, fold in half in the direction of the length inside out over inside out and pin skirting the entire back giving slight stretched in the band only. Sew and overloque.
