Can I use a 3/4 limb cloth body slip for full length arms

Can I use a 3/4 limb cloth body slip for full length arms

I found a reborn doll kit that I really like and it has full length limbs, I wanted to know if it would be possible to use a 3/4 cloth body slip with them because I already have this.

I would love to hear a response!

It will depend on the length of the arms but chances are that you'll end up with a baby that has monkey arms.There are bodies made specifically for full length limbs.

Generally full arms don't work with the 3/4 because of the way they hook on. It puts them sidways and looks very odd. You could modify them by sewing as the other person said but that is difficult. I modified my last one by ordering a full arm full leg body and the 3/4 arm 3/4 leg as well as 2 sets of joints and swaping the full legs off one body with the 3/4 arms off the other leaving me with 2 full arm 3/4 leg bodies for the 2 matching kits I had.

Best of luck though,

I would use a body made for full length arms unless you can modify it.
The arms will be long if you dont.
Full arms are great ,you can use any type of sleeves with them :)

If you're at all handy with a needle & thread you can modify the body-arms pieces. Kind of like hemming a pair of pants.
