Materials

My new year's resolution was to bust my fabric stash. I just combined several coordinating fabrics in those from old projects.

What was your inspiration?

This was done for a client who loves black, white and red, for her daughter. Mom is very contemporary, so I chose a design that was tattoo art for the onezie. I embroidered that with same fabric applique

What are you most proud of?

The colors

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Trust and follow the instructions. I was going to second guess. Don't skimp on bargain elastic. She's not kidding the elastic will stretch. Bargain elastic will reach its ultimate stretch point and just sag.
