The following pattern comes from Puchimadam:

So, total props to Melissa for helping out the rest of us budding Blythe lovers. I have previously made the sun dress from her site, and the pattern and instructions are very straight forward, just as the t-shirt pattern was. Just in case you want to read a bit more about what to do in creating the Blythe t-shirt before you get started, here are the steps I took:

Step1: Buy fabric and wash. I typically have some scraps from other sewing projects laying around that I can use. Get the ironing board out, and heat up the iron.

Step 2: Print and cut pattern out for regular printer paper.

Step 3: Place pattern on fabric. Align pattern on portion of fabric you want to display. On the fabric I just used, there was no need to center the fabric over some design in the pattern because the pattern was small. See picture below.

Step 4: Pin paper pattern to fabric.

Step 5: Cut pattern out of fabric, and take pins out. You should have something that looks like the piece on the left-hand side of this picture: Step 6: Fold the edges of sleeves and hem under one at a time, starching and ironing as you go. Sew down the edges that you have ironed down.

Step 7: Hem the neckline. Fold the neckline under and sew.

Step 8: Fold the two “wings” of the fabric over so that the raw edges meet for form a t-shirt looking thing.

Step 9: Sew the raw edges together.

Step 10: Turn the shirt inside out, and place on Blythe doll. Take note of how much you should hem the back of the t-shirt for the shirt to close properly (too much and you won’t be able to close the shirt; too little and you will have a bunch of fabric left over).

Step 11: Hem the back. Sew on velcro or snap buttons.

All done!
