I have had this fleece for a couple of years. I just have been at a loss as to what to do with it. I am tired of it taking up so much room in my fabric drawers. So I decided to try to make some jammies with it for the upcoming winter. They are extremely bulky but my dd loves them. She has worn them every second that she can. It was a fight to tear them off her body last night, they were to dirty to wear to bed :)
I just used a simple jammie pant pattern for the pants (butterick b5153) and for the sweater I laid out a sweater of hers and made it a few inches longer. It worked perfectly.
Fleece is surprisingly easy to sew, bulky but easy.
This is my next upcycle project. . . what should it be....well I might hold off until spring to make a cute skirt for baby.
Here is the finished project I told you all about last post. It is a pencil notebook/color book case. I have some kinks that need to be worked out but I think I might offer it in my shop...what do you all think?
Today I am cutting out tons of kits for rag quilt car seat tents. I have a show coming up. This will be my first one...wish me luck.
