Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Kid's Romper Revamp: Creative Pattern Adapting »

Instructions

Shelly's class covers everything, and I mean everything, you need to know. I'd caution a newbie be careful about large-prints or stripes as they can be tricky to match.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Clothing

For: Children

Style: Retro / Vintage, Preppy, Cute


Materials

Two vintage knits from a local craft store.

What was your inspiration?

I wanted something entirely 80s as I've been in that kind of mood lately. I was excited to review both Shelly's pattern and class for the romper.

What are you most proud of?

I'm proud I got all the stripes lined up perfectly, and that my daughter loves the garment for play, sleep, and swim.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Go slow and TAKE SHELLY'S CLASS. You can learn a lot, and not JUST about this pattern.
