To Sew or Not to Sew? (now with PsIP)

[monkeybabe]

I bought a pattern for a romper months ago, but the smallest size in the pattern is 18 months. After measuring Zoe, I think she might fit into that size, even if it's a bit big. My midwifery is having their annual pot luck picnic next Sunday and I'm thinking about trying to make the romper in time for that. I'm really a novice at sewing, so I'm slightly worried that I'll just stress myself out making this thing, but it's so cuuuute.



It would be in different fabrics, but I'm thinking it might be a little advanced for me.

super cute! Do you have enough time to work on it this week? the deadline would be stressing me out. But if you have time set aside- try it out!

if you get really stuck, modern domestic (on alberta) is a great shop and they are very helpful. They have Friday Night "Sewcials" and they can help you if you need to finish it at the last minute.

That is the sweetest thing I have seen. I would try, if you think you can do it in time, but I don't want you to stress yourself out over it either. I'm sure there will be plenty of other occasions to wear it this summer.

I cut out all the pieces and it looks like it'll be pretty huge on my tiny little girl, haha. If I make it right and it doesn't fit, maybe I'll just send it to a probie.

So cute! If you get stuck post some pictures here and we will see if we can help you over the 'net.

SUPER CUTE!!!!!!!!!!! Do IT!

[raynes]

I vote do it. But I guess you are, as you've already cut the pieces. GL!!

[joyhart02]

I vote try and do it!

[monkeybabe]

Okay, I have mostly finished it already. I don't have one thing I need to finish the back of it and the leg holes and instead of sewing the crotch shut, I'd rather get snaps, since, ya know, diapers.

I didn't have dark thread, so I used pink throughout and the dark ruffles look pretty meh, because I'm not great at sewing in a straight line, but whatever.


Also, I'm pretty sure it's way too big for my munchkin.

OMG you are amazing! WOW so dang talented. It looks absolutely precious! I hope she can wear it!

So cute! I like yours way more than the picture above.

[mala]

Love it!

[bigapple]

I can't believe you whipped that up so quickly! You are talented.

[monkeybabe]

It turned out to be much more simple than I expected

This is BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLL!!

I think it looks great! Well done.

[monkeybabe]

Thanks ladies! I just need to go buy some snaps and some elastic thread tomorrow and I can finish it.

[ruby412]

Wow, you have some talent, lady! Can't wait to see Zoe try it on!

[bean47]

You're so talented. I love it!

[Faevantastic]

SO cute!

[joyhart02]

Cute!!

[katie]

Wow, that was fast! It looks great, very pretty!

[teamhayes]

Wow! That looks like it was really hard to do. Those ruffles are so cute. If you are not a good sewer i would like to see what a bad one looks like. That came out great!

[kkfeb04]

Looks great! So cute.

[jaime183]

Looks great! I can't wait to see it on Zoe, even if it is too big you could probably bunch it up with the elastic legs
