Jojo wore his 'cars' version of this shirt today and he was so comfy and looked very dapper! It's loose fitting, allowing lots of room for playing, climbing, crawling and toddling ♥

I have preshrunk this over sized light blue check gingham,  want to play around with scale. These buttons should look really cute too!

... calling it a night as it's officially tomorrow morning!  All seems have been felled, two sleeves set and just the side seam and hem to do! And the buttons of course!

Vintage girl's sunsuit - version 2! (Available to Order, can be Personalised)

I made a different version for another birthday girl, I personalised it with a embroidered appliqué heart shaped patch♥

Vintage girl's Sunsuit (Available to Order)

My first blog post! I made this little vintage sunsuit for my friend's daughter's first birthday. I adapted the pattern slightly - nappies do not need the space they once did! I also added a ric rac trim (after first testing it for colour fastness, I've learnt from my mistakes!). It was lovely making girls clothes for a change!
