A little while ago a friend of mine asked me to make a church outfit for her thre-year-old daughter. We went all out, with a jacket, skirt and co-ordinating shirt.
Jacket - A 'crop styled' jacket. Sturdy black cotton. Lined with a lighter, pink cotton.
Skirt - A bubble skirt [that didn't end up being poufy]. Light grey skirting material; part cotton. Lined with light pink cotton. Adjustable waist. Applique - two flowers, two buttons [that co-ordinate with the button on the jacket] and a bright pink ribbon bow.
Shirt - bright/hot pink. Store bought.
I also made a couple of hair bows to go with the outfit:
[The pink in each picture is a deep hot/bright pink. Thanks to aweful lighting, the color didn't come out right. :( The color is more like the picture below.]
This outfit was not only a lot of fun to make, it was satisfying. I knew my customer, and exactly what she wanted. It also helped that I could measure the person it was meant for. That way I was able to present something that was made to fit just for them.
NOTE- Please do not use these photos for anything. They are not to be copied or saved in anyway. And please DO NOT pin them. Thanks.
