Refashioned infant outfit, plus two bonus projects...

Time for an update!


I used three items to make the outfit:
1)  An infant top that costed me $1.25 at Target (on clearance).  
2)  An old sleeveless top I haven't worn in ages; it was too short for my postpartum body, but I loved the embroidered botanical design.   
3)  A hand-me-down onesie that was given to me for my son, but my daughter didn't get to wear before she outgrew it.  I really liked the colors, especially the dragonfly applique.


I'm very happy with how it turned out!

A full update regarding what I did in the alterations will be added to Sew Mankycat.

As an added bonus, here's another project that I worked on this month and one my husband crafted.  Both were using spare cardboard from our move to make fun items for our children.  Mine are faery wings for my daughter to wear to Faery Festival.  My husband's is a full Clone Trooper outfit from Star Wars for our son's birthday party (and just for fun).
