@Inder I figure if I use a stretchy knit it should be useable and give me some leeway.
She is divinely chubby.
Thank you!

Brilliant, thanks Ladies.
I have some very stretchy soft cotton lycra I will make the prototype with.

The links were super helpful.

Oooh, that sounds so pretty. I sewed with faux shearling once, it wasn’t so bad. I shaved the seam allowance with a daisy shaver first.

@dubhels2003 You are a legend, every 1.5 hours, you are a Rock Star lady!
Beatrix has started screaming if I don’t feed her quick enough when she is ready to feed. I have to settle her, let her sleep for 20…[Read more]

I thought I’d cut straight
Oh my but wait
Should stripes go across the grain line?

New one,

My scissors are missing again!

I think a 5 with length will be just fine for a night dress.
It will have fullness though, so I not sure how it fits into safety in regard to fire hazards.

Tildy (5) wanted her her in a ‘chickacheater’ this morning.
I am pretty good at kiddy speak but this one had me stumped.
