This one I made using one of my old tank tops. It was really easy since I didn't have to sew the side seams or bottom hem. I just cut the tank top a few inches below the straps and made it the width of the onesie using two pleats on the front..
...and gathering in the back.
I made this "sleep sack" using THIS tutorial. It came together really fast and easy. The bodice and mitten cuff are made out of a t-shirt I got at the thrift store. The arms and gown pieces are flannel, and the binding around the neck and wrists is some of my new lacy foldover elastic. I decided to cinch the bottom with ribbon instead of elastic, like the tutorial used.
I pinned the front to keep the front sections together. I think I'll put a few snaps along the binding to keep them together.

Everything is so cute, Caitlin. You just amaze me coming up with all these baby things.
ReplyDeleteI love that dress you made from your old tanktop! it is SO cute! you are so creative Caitlin!
ReplyDeleteIf mine is a girl, I am saving a bit of fabric from two different "mother daughter" projects so we all THREE can match. I was thinking a little jumper just like the one you pictured. The pleats are a really cute idea.
