Faithful reader I am attempting to play catch up. I realized I had never posted about the birthday outfit for Princess. Now that you mention it, there is a whole lot I haven't posted about during this crazy summer. All of that aside, here is the little shorts set I made for Princess' 3rd birthday.
Children's Corner Becky |
I used Children's Corner "Becky" for the shorts set. The fit was great when worn as intended. Princess has an annoying habit of shoving her pants, shorts, bloomers and panties down below her tummy. When she does this, it makes it appear as if the shirt is too short. Its not. Fabric is from Nashville Cottons.
Gigi Designs |
The embroidery design is from Gigi Designs. Stitches up great. She likes to "blow out" the candle.
Sweet gingham seersucker collar and shorts with fun purple buttons. Her favorite color right now.
Why a picture of the bows over the side slits? Because it took as long to make those bows as it did the entire outfit. I am not good at turn cord. No amount of special tools help me.
She doesn't do well with the whole birthday party present and cake thing. Cries when you sing Happy Birthday, wouldn't open gifts with everyone there but oh man, let her loose in a park with slides and she is after it. It didn't matter that we did the slides, swings and climbing in the rain. She loved it. Just don't sing Happy Birthday.
This is what you get when you try to party. Is that not the most pitiful thing you ever saw? Never fear, as I said, once we got to the rides and slides she was a happy camper.
