Yesterday I was able to resume my Kids Clothing Week sewing. Since I missed 3 days, I am gonna have Kids Clothing Week and a half and extend it on until Wednesday. Just because my To-Do list is still longer than my Christmas List--yikes!!! I finally finished this little jacket for Em. The pattern is from Dear My Kids and I sewed along with the group over at From an Igloo. It was not SUPER hard sewing, but a lot of firsts for me. I am glad I stuck with it and hope I like it enough on the kiddo to actually have her wear it.
I did everything just like the pattern except I did not make button holes. I sewed the buttons on and then just added some velcro to close it---I cannot imagine Em standing still for buttons every time we put her coat on----or for 2 seconds consecutively at that.
The lining is green with little white dots.
I just had to include a picture of the back because this is the part that caused the most bad words.....lets just say I used my un-picker a little bit.
And that is her little coat. THE END:)
Holy Cuteness Jessica!!!!!
