I finished up this little sunsuit today for Cecelia, and couldn't wait to share! It's from the Sweet Baby Jane Sunsuit pattern by Sara Norris LTD. I am absolutely smitten with how it turned out!
In a couple weeks, my little sweetie and I are off to California! My husband has to fly out there for business, and Cecelia and I will be flying out later to join him for a long weekend. I can't wait! The sun and surf are definitely calling my name. :)
I want to cash in on the opportunity and take some sweet pics of my chunky girl on the beach, and wanted something special for her to wear. I combed the Internet for ruffle butt romper patterns--did you know there are a ton? I narrowed it down to a couple, and then eventually down to this one--that sweet bow suckered me in. Ha!
The fabric I used is Flower Sugar by Lecian. I saw a dress made from these prints a few months ago, and immediately ordered some from Etsy! I knew the pink and yellow would make something perfect for Cecelia--and now I'm so glad that I did. I love the vintage feel of the fabrics.
On the pattern itself, I would give it a B+. I found the instructions to be a little lacking and confusing at times, and was a little miffed it did not give leg elastic measurements. When I spend $10 on a pattern, I expect to have all the info needed to make the pattern. That said, it did result in an amazingly cute finished product--so overall I'm happy!
I love the butt ruffles!
Hopefully I'll have some great beach pics to share in a few weeks! Now I just need to figure out what else to make her before we go!
Happy Crafting!
Linking to these great parties!
