Doll bed sewing pattern

Make a cosy doll bassinet (carry cot) for your Studio Seren stuffed animal dolls with our cute and easy sewing pattern. The doll bed combines a strong, sturdy outer structure that is built to last with a padded inside to keep your dolls snug. I’ve spent a lot of time testing various combinations of fabrics and stabilisers, so you don’t have to

With this pattern you can also make a mattress, pillow, blanket and cushion to make the bed extra cosy and cute

The pattern includes three sizes of bed

MATERIALS

The instructions include a detailed list of materials including exact measurements and the brand and product number of the stabilisers I’ve used so you can make a bed as strong as mine

The bed is made with the following fabrics: heavy weight cotton fabric, heavy weight fusible interfacing, high loft fusible fleece, high loft polyester batting/wadding and medium-weight fusible interfacing

To make the small or medium bed you will need approximately ½ a yard/metre of each of these fabrics. To make the large bed you will need approximately ¾ yard or ½ metre of each of these fabrics. This is based on 44" (112cm) wide fabric

The mattress, pillow, blanket and cushion can be made with medium-weight cotton fabric such as quilting cotton. It is fun to use different fabrics, but if they were to be made from the same fabric the small bed could be made with ½ yard (with lots left over or ¼ metre of fabric. The medium bed could be made with ½ yard/metre of fabric and the large with ¾ yard/metre of fabric. This is based on 44” (112cm) wide fabric
