This was made from a Burda World of Fashion pattern that I had to alter a lot because it was really long.
The fabric is vintage, and so are the buttons on the pockets.

I found this shirt super cheap at a garage sale this summer.
Added some more fabric and walla (sp?) It is done.

This was very quick and easy to make!
I love to work with knit fabric.

I had so much fun making this, there will definitely be more.

And... Another one...

I made these this week. Patches is a mix of vintage and modern fabrics.

I am so thrilled with this pattern. It is super easy and fits over diaper butts. I honestly do not think pattern companies take that into consideration when drafting patterns for wee ones. I haven't tried the top yet, but will post pics when I do. These shorts run a little long, which I think is cute, they look like little surfer shorts. One is a truck patterned cotton and the other is a tan cordoroy.

This pattern was ok after some adjustments .I made the short sleeve shirt and it literally could have been a dress.Took about 8 inches off the bottom. I also had to shorten the sleeves.


One is made from modern fabric, and the other is vintage.

I made this costume for my daughter. I used Simplicity 5042. I really should know better and have drafted my own pattern. It came out ok, but I think it would have been quicker if I had made my own pattern. She was thrilled and gets to wear it to school tommorrow so that is all that counts.
