Of a kimono-style jacket for the tiny one. After making some mods on the
kimono-top, I had this
(I sincerely apologize for the poor quality of the photos, it's too dark to take decent ones.) Anyway, I think this turned out pretty darned cute. :) It could have been just a teeny bit wider, but luckily the babe is really skinny, so this fits her perfectly. I think I'll probably make another one, maybe lined with fleece or something, so that she can wear it when it gets colder.

ReplyDeleteSusanna - thank you! I kinda try to avoid pink, but I think this looks very cute in pink. And I still have something like 2 meters left of this fabric, so I might just make more of these jackets. :)
ReplyDeleteNätti! Juu, ne pienet on haastavia kuvattavia, mikään kamera ei tunnu olevan tarpeeksi nopea :)
ReplyDeletevillapeikko - kiitos! Juu, haastava on ehkä aika sopiva sana tähän.. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love the fabrics, they go very well together!
ReplyDeleteAlexandra - thanks! I was a bit amazed that those fabrics go together that well. A nice surprise. :)
ReplyDeleteSEW PERFECT! I love this! Congrats on the button holes, I hate doing them too, but yours look great! I really like how this one closes up compared to the first kimono!
