Do swing set if no one else wants it

I think they are pretty similar from my memory.
If your child is particularly skinny you *can* fold some width out of the pattern. I have done this but my daughter is very very skinny.
ETA I always have to open my fabric out to cut the bottoms.

Good luck!

Good luck!

Here is my tute http://www.pinterest.com/pin/73676143878416947/, it is a great sew.
I would wonder if you sewed the shoulders seams and then checked by pulling it over your little ones head (you may need to cut the neck opening a bit bigger) if you used ribbing, like a t-shirt neck?
I am only pondering though, I have not made it….. 🙂

You will love this pattern. It is no ordinary t-shirt dress.
The shoulders have such a great shape.
I have a step by step tute for the dress but as it is for a nightie I wonder if you could cut the back bodice on a centre fold and use ribbing for the neck ?

Day one done, only just…… and ONLY because Hugo rocked Trixie.
Better late then never Tamara 🙂

Patricia, I got Hugo’s here https://www.flickr.com/photos/motherof5/14552916057/, so cheap! ($10/m)

Thanks Girls, you are kind.
Back from a whirlwind trip to our beach cottage, to deliver the new washing machine and mow the lawns.
The mice had had a field day so it was a bit of a mess. I have brought all the bedding home to wash and we will take it back next weekend.
*Fingers crossed*
It was too fresh for swimming but we love the beach all year…[Read more]
