Banded Boy Bubble

Creations by Michie' The Banded Boy Bubble. 

I had quite a hard time with the directions, and made the outfit at least 2 sizes too big. 

The outfit is sweet, and looks quite vintage. I did not gather the bubble pants, but instead chose to put an inverted pleat in the front and back on the sides.

I got very confused on the back of the pattern, and made a mistake that is quite visible I thought. I did not tack down the waistband, instead they do not meet in the back by at least an inch. 

The collar is darling, and frames his cheerful little face perfectly. I will make this again, and I will get it right. Its what I get for not making up a muslin for the first time. 

Top: 100% Cotton Voile

Bottom: 100% Cotton broadcloth

Button snaps

New Blog and Past Projects

This my dear friends who I cannot see or hear, is my sewing blog. You are welcome to explore this barren land, which shall remain barren only a little bit, as I shall assume my duties on filling this delicious blog with all kinds of fabulous items which I shall construct out of yardages of soft fabrics. Please come back and visit when this land starts turning lush and verdant with projects.

Simple little girl lace gloves. These took about 10 minutes to make. And made my little princess fan so very happy. 

A tiny little dress made from pattern Simplicity 3511. Easy and quick to sew, and a favorite pattern for its easy breezy wearability. 

Is that the dirty laundry basket in the corner? Nevermind, look at the dress, the dress is the point my friends!

Could you resist that cloud of hair? No, neither can I.
