I still draft mine off, I dislike working with the stiff paper. I find the glued sheets fold nicely and I store them in a ziplock bag.

How old is your daughter, by your description I am assuming a toddler? So she may only wear the garment for a short time?

If it was me, I would be researching which patterns are the best fit for that body shape, rather then altering a higher waisted pattern.

Yes a swimsuit would be ideal but it would have to include a boy version also.

I’d sew the blazer too 🙂 A knit cardigan would be wonderful as well – they are my personal favorite thing to wear so my girls get new ones each year (store-bought). Now that I have dipped my toes into the waters of swimsuit sewing, it occurs to me that an O+S swimsuit pattern with a couple different views would be awesome …

Both are so pretty, I hope they find good homes!

I just have the neck binding to stitch down and we have a pair of mini pj’s!

Trying to find where the spring patterns were launched last year but having trouble locating it. Will they be soon or next month?
