I made some cute little bloomers for baby Aurora. (They are actually white--don't know why they look greenish in this photo.) I used McCall's pattern #M5916. But the ruffles were my own idea! And believe it or not, I made these bloomers from a t-shirt of mine. I just found I wasn't wearing it much, and I cleaned/sorted one day to get more room in my closet. The bloomers were quite easy to put together. I have enough of the t-shirt left to make another pair, including ruffles.
I love these! And I'll bet the tshirt cotton makes them really comfy, too.
ReplyDeleteThe pattern didn't call for a knit fabric, but I had seen an on-line tute about making bloomers from knit fabric, so I just used the t-shirt.
ReplyDeleteWhat!!! do you have a baby Aurora too. How fun. Aurora is not a very common name.
ReplyDeleteMy friend LindaH says you might need a bit of help with a graphic for your blog. Let me know if I can help.
Yes, Gail, BabyStitches's name is Aurora. It's a pretty name, isn't it. I will email you.
