Sewing for my girl
Judge me as you will but one of the things I was most looking forward to about having children was dressing them in adorable clothes (yes I can be shallow tisk tisk). In particular to dress a little girl, making her little adorable things to wear. Over the years I have made my son pj and embroiderer t-shirts, made him costumes and loved it but to be honest its not the same as frilly dresses and matching knickers. When I first bought my little girl home I sent husband to the shops to buy girl clothes because I had thought I wouldn't care about dressing my child in boys or girl clothes but I was wrong I wanted to dress her in gorgeous adorable lovely things
I had big plans to make her a wardrobe of clothes but life happens and frankly in the past 12 months there have been many days that I am just grateful that the kids were feed and in mostly clean clothes. So apart from making my little girls christening dress I haven't made her any clothes. This week I changed all that I made her a romper.
I love rompers because while dresses can look so lovely they are very impractical for a crawling baby, they get all up under their knees.


Its not perfect but my little girl looks happy wearing it and I had a fun time making it. It really was surprisingly easy and I think that a pretty novice sewer could do fine with this one.
