I was recently honored to be asked to be a tester of Sara Norris'
new pattern for a child's little garment bag.
It is a wonderfully written pattern & one that will work for children of many ages.
The single pattern gives directions for making two sizes:
Small- 12 months-3 years
Or
Medium-4 years -6 years
Due to being hit with an attack of diverticulitis as well as a computer virus,
I was not able to complete my project in time to get photos of it
to Sara before the debut of the pattern.
I'm sharing it with you today.
The pockets have little pleats on each side.
I altered the pockets a wee bit by embellishing them with fabric yo-yos
& buttons & changing them to a Velcro closure,
rather than ribbon ties because
Ms. C. can't tie things yet!
All the kids wear Velcro strap shoes these days.
I'm going to work on helping her learn that skill this weekend when she visits.
You may purchase this pattern at Sara's website, where you can see all the other
tester's cute versions.
Thank you, Sara, for having faith in my sewing skills to be able to test stitch this for you.
Thanks to everyone who visits the Gazebo House, too.
fondly,
The bag is precious!!

Too cute!! Feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI love it! But seriously you are killing me with the embroidery. Don't know if you knew or not but I used to work for an embroidery store. Doing sales and taking the embroidery orders, but not the embroidery itself. I do some light sewing but thats about it, I would love to start doing some home embroidery. What type of home embroidery machine do you have? I so want one! My husband wants a heavy dutier machine so I can sew some of his sailing canvas and etc. Does your embroidery machine allow for heavier duty sewing as well? Sorry to bog you with question but a gal needs to know, ya know!
