Baby Bloomers

Last month my sweet baby (who we will refer to as PB) was blessed. For her blessing she wore the an heirloom dress and booties but I also wanted her to wear something that she could keep as her own.

 I decided to make bloomers for her. I searched the internet for a pattern and the best one I found was here. They make it really easy with multiple patterns. PB was a little small for even the smallest but with her diaper it fit fine.

I ended up making two. My MIL helped me out and I got to use her really nice sewing machine and embroidery machine. The first pair was a practice and the second pair was the one she wore. We embroidered a "P" on the bum. The practice pair my MIL sewed some pretty elastic on and she can wear those now too! Here are some pictures I took today of her modeling them:


Isn't she a doll?

Oops looks like I have a string to cut on there :)
Have any great tutorials you've tried out? 
Happy Wednesday!

  8. My kids are all older now but these little bloomers were a standard for me. I loved having them to cover up the diapers when they wore dresses. I even had their names embroidered in different colors to coordinate with various outfits! Even more precious, that you made them for your little PB! What a dollbaby she is!

  9. that looks great! funny, I found the same pattern last week, and made a pink pair for a newborn photo session I had on Monday. I love how you embellished the back of yours. I thought about doing that, but ended up leaving it plain.
