Hopefully the rest of the baby garb

The flowered fabric looks great in real life - and it was from a 'fat quarter' which is a trick I'm going to keep in mind more often!


This is one that didn't photograph well. The teal fabric is right on the cusp of 'blue or is it green' so it freaked out my camera's eye. And the trim doesn't show as nice, either. But I'm still including it in here.


One actual gown. The patterned fabric is from yet another fat quarter. I overlapped the front opening and hid a Velcro strip inside so mom won't have to deal with buttons or hooks & eyes. Or lacings - imagine trying to lace up a squirming baby at Pennsic, in those temperatures!



One surcote for wearing over a onesie or whatever, or over a chemise if she already has one. It, too, has color-contrast problems in the photo and looks better in real life.

The "Swamp Gown"
Momma is going to be the Mayor's secretary next year. The Mayor is named "Phrog" (yes, "frog"), so she ends up being called "Tadpole" on our informal roster. And Phrog and his cronies have a camp way down in the bog which is called 'the swamp'. Baby will end up going to the swamp with momma for meetings and such, so she needed a swamp gown.




The fabric came with this embroidery on it already. And what a pain it was, unraveling at each cut edge!


I added buttons and a loop at the top of the neck opening so it won't slide down baby's shoulders. And I have no idea why the picture shows up in my files right-side-up but yet transfers laying on its left side.
