Girl Jammies

Still blogging from the iPhone. Siiiiiggggghhhhhh. GCI should be up this week to dig ditches and get things connected.

Just finished two sets of girl jammies. I made them short sleeved because I didn't have enough fabric for long sleeves and I think the girls like short sleeves. Both have embroidery and both have bows. You can't have one twin with a bow and the other without! Good Gawd! This is the fourth time I've used this great pattern. Kristine sent it to me originally and it's definitely a keeper! I used my triple coverstitch on the wrong side so it sort of looks like a top cover (I think that what it's called) stitch. I used that for the neckline, sleeves, and ruffle hem. This is Butterick 4910.

This embroidery is from UrbanThreads.com. Love it!

Here's my faux-top cover stitch.


This is Hawaii fabric.


This is a freebie from EmbroiderThis.com. They have some cute free designs.

  4. Lovely. Is the wirework dress form applique your own design? It adds a great, quirky touch.
