Sew Crafty Friday

People who have stopped by Shereen's blog today are displaying some really, really nice things. Please visit "Waiting for Him, " over there on my blog list, for some crafty enjoyment!


Here's my donation today:



This skirt and top comes from a back issue of Ottobre magazine. It is about a size 3 and made of knit. That white thing hanging on the shirt will be the binding around the neck. It matches the waistband on the little skirt, which has a kangaroo pocket.

This was pretty easy to put together. I bought the fabric from someone on a site I belong to called "Sewing Mamas" and got a good deal. The Ottobre magazine came from eBay. If you want to drool over the cutest kids' clothes, check out their site. The magazine features all the patterns. However...you have to trace each one for yourself. That's the only annoying thing, but the results are fun. I'm giving this to a friend's little girl. It should fit her next spring.

Yes, Jude, if you're reading this...the dress is for Ada!
