Ruffled Bloomers

Here are some pictures of the ruffled nappy covers/bloomers I've been making the past 2 days. I'm quite proud of them. I attempted to make one when I bought the pattern last year - and swore I'd never make one again. I found it so difficult, and it was very unprofessional looking as I didn't have an overlocker at time and my machine was a dodgy cheap one...

Anyway, I'm glad I tried to make one again. They turned out sooo cute. And very neat and professional looking. My sewing technique and attention to quality and detail has definitely improved! I think I will start selling these when I eventually get a little online shop going :)

Aren't they adorable?! I made another one today as well. The fabric is Riley Blake's Promenade and it has pale purple pompom trim across the top ruffle. I didn't get a picture, but it is probably the cutest one yet!

I love these little ruffled bloomers on a cute baby tooshie. They're so perfect for the Australian summer, where it can get hot enough for a baby to wear only a nappy all day. These covers pretty up a plain nappy bum, and also look adorable under little short dresses. I'm planning to make some short peasant style dresses to go with these as a set.

Anyway, until next time...
