I made both kids outfits for Christmas this year. Ellie was super excited when she opened hers on Christmas morning.
I used this
circle skirt tutorial from the MADE blog to make the skirt. The material is a light weight corduroy, very comfortable with lots of spin to it. I also made a set for her doll.
I made the doll sized shirt from Simplicity pattern #2296, it was pretty easy to put together. I did the skirt the same as Ellie's only on a smaller scale. Here's Ellie playing her new guitar in her new outfit. (sorry the picture is really grainy)
For Michael I made pants from a flannel army print and a shirt with a helicopter applique. He wasn't nearly as excited but has worn the outfit a ton already.
To make the pants I just traced a pair of pants he already had, it's a super easy way to make basic pants.
I made a few differnt little pouches as gifts. This one was a gift for Ellie's friend Karstyn, with a little toy inside. I used
this tutorial on Noodlehead, I also made a bunch of these
gathered clutches also on the Noodlehead blog.
These are two of the many I made, the back one I ended up keeping because it turned out a bit askew.
