One last quick note. Black fabrics sometimes contain a lot of dye that can stain your doll. It’s best to pre-wash your fabric or the t-shirt you cut up for this project before you start. And just to be safe, don’t leave your doll in her costume for an extended period of time or in a very hot environment (like a hot car or in a sunny window). She’ll be fine for Trick-or-Treating, but don’t leave her in her costume til the New Year!
