Sewing clothes for my little niece

So I have a little 9 month old niece. She is the cutest little thing.

I saw her first at her christening when she was just under 2 months old and then again when she was 4months.

Since then I have only seen her via Skype.

I wanted to make some dresses for he and so far she has received one reversible pinafore dress (see my post from June 4th)

Now I made an other reversible top and matching shorts

And 2 dresses with tie closures on the shoulders

Cannot wait to see her wear these

Sewing baby dress

I wanted to make a reversible dress for my niece, who is 8months old. The difficult part was to find just the perfect fabrics and match them together. The dress itself took only couple of hours

One side is brown with white spots and turquoise accent fabric for the collar and pockets

The other side is orange chevron pattern and without pockets

This is an apron style dress so usually you would wear pants or shorts underneath, and since babies usually have the cute diaper pants, they would be great. The design also allows this dress to be worn as a shirt for toddlers, so assuming the seams and fabric holds, this should be something Little Emmi can wear couple of years. Let's hope she likes it :-)

I mailed it to her last week and hopefully receive some pictures of her wearing the dress soon!
