Are you stitching with an embroidery machine, sewing machine or by hand? How detailed do you want the clothing? I have a video for my embroidery machine clothes and I'm working on one for the sewing machine clothes to go with a free pattern I'm releasing soon. Let me know what you're looking for and I'll try to address your questions. 😁

@@BallyhooCreations thanks for your reply. I have a normal sewing machine. I m working on building a small puppet using the above technique. I also do hand sewing
if I didn’t want to add feet, would I just cut the wire?

Yes, just cut the wire shorter. But I suggest making a loop at the end of the leg wire and taping it so it won't eventually poke through the leg fabric. Happy building!

@@BallyhooCreations I’m using 12 gauge wire 2mm and the doll I’m making had the measurements of: neck: 1”, arms; 3”, leg: 5.5”, torso; 1.5”. And for the legs, I noticed that in the video the wire wasn’t twisted at all. For my doll I need to twist the wire for my legs so could you help me with how much wire I should cut for my doll? (The neck to the toes, and the arms)

@@zahrarw9985 I'm not sure I understand the proportions of your doll. If you're on Facebook you can join our group and post a photo for better help. Is it 5.5" from neck to crotch, then 5.5" for legs? If so, I would cut 30" of wire, fold at neck, then fold at the bottom of each leg. That gives you extra wire because it shrinks when you twist and you can cut the excess from each end.

@@BallyhooCreations So I would do it as normal and fold the wire, at the bottom of the wire where it’s not folded I would create folds for each leg then I would twist the neck, torso and legs then move on to my arms?
