Doll's undies

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Toy

For: Children

Materials

Fleece and cotton, narrow elastic

What was your inspiration?

My three year old insisted, "Baby needs dinosaur underpants." So, now Baby has dinosaur underpants. Of course, half way through the project, my son declared, "Baby needs two pairs in case one gets wet." I'm still deciding whether or not to indulge that request. (My son recently potty trained a few months ago, and is a little obsessed with it at the moment. LOL)

What are you most proud of?

I figured it out on my own without instructions or a pattern.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The hardest part was the binding around the legs. (I used binding left over from my most recent quilt. If I had made binding specifically for this project, I would have made it narrower.) You could simplify this project by simply zigzagging around the leg holes and leaving the raw edges, or stitching on lace rather than using binding.
