Well my memory must be fading in my old age, the Bedtime Story also have a one-piece pant. Huh!

Good luck! I bet having a story book to go along with getting the clock will be very useful. Sending you zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzs

Another vote for a clock. The ones my girls have is called the Tot Clock and it is entirely too expensive but desperate, sleep-deprived parents will pay anything, right?

Oh my, so cute!

I would use the Music Class collar and the top yoke to make to front.

Thank you!!!

“seems there are little mini-hacks that people come up with on each project to solve tricky issues that come from their project’s unique combination of fabrics, patterns, tools, and workspace.”

Well put!

Oh yes, good tip to check Pinterest! I’m in the same boat as you, Linda. I’m pretty sure these machines do much more than just neatening edges, I just haven’t taken the time to explore.
