Kids Refashion- Jumper To Sweater!

Its been a busy June for me so I haven't had a lot of time to post my new refashions. I have several just waiting so I will start with one I was pretty happy with. My kid has this jumpsuit that is super cute but got too small. Its fleece and has cute polar bears on it. So I decided to get one more winter out of it (I hope!)



First thing to do was chop it just above the crotch, leaving as much room as possible to create a new hem.

Next I folded the edge over once and pinned it down.

Then I sewed a new hem. I used a triangle stitch to allow the material room to stretch.

Here is the end result:


She wouldn't stop moving for a picture!

I did my best to get a picture of her in it, but the kids moves so much! I also threw it on over the onesie she had on so it looks a bit twisted and ill fitted. It turned out great and it only took me a couple minutes to do this!
