Cressida Celebrates the Boy
Devona | February 8, 2010 | 2:27 pm
Since I don’t have a boy around to model for me, Cressida is playing stand-in.
I really have to thank Cal Patch for her book Design it Yourself Clothes for making this draft so easy. She gave me the rules to follow where I was taking educated guesses before. So although there are no youth patterns in her book the explanations included are pretty universal.
This is just a first draft of the romper. I did not take into account how big a diaper is, so the rise is about two inches off. I’m going to adjust my pattern and make one out of a men’s shirt I really like. Wish me luck!
It looks REALLY good, Devona! Let me know when you need a model again! Ben works for cheap…
Love this!! You could embellish it for a girl, too.
Yeah, I don’t see why a girl can’t wear this. It would be so cute with little ruffles right at the feet and a strip of pink ric-rac going down along side the buttons.
Here’s me dreaming about sewing things for girls.
You need a daughter.
You can borrow one of mine if you really need to sew for girls in the near future!
SO CUTE! Great job!
soo cute..might have to commission me a couple for the newest kid coming…I might even have some un-needed shirts laying about the basement to donate to your sewing projects.
