The sewing on this set is not up to par but there were firsts and it’s been awhile since I’ve sewn anything.  I’m a bit rusty apparantly.

Let’s see, the dress is Olivia by Farbenmix, just the underdress and without the pocket.  I thought the pocket would take away from the print on the dress.  The hood is velour.  I ended up needing to rip the hood off once, as I used a straight stitch to attach it and to topstitch it … it wouldn’t go over Matthew’s head (this is going to a little girl about Matthew’s size) so I serged it with some wooly nylon and added the decorative topstitching instead.  Works much better.  I’m just glad that I tried it on him first!

The diaper, is a Little Comet Tails AIO in size medium.  I’ve only serged a couple of diapers ever, but I see improvement on this one.  I’m still not putting my elastic in far enough though.  There are a couple of spots I had to go over as well.

The shorts are also LCT, but the Crescent Moon Yoga Pants pattern.  I lettuced the edges of the dress and the shorts, but I’m not very good at that yet — somehow the thread keeps missing the fabric every now and then, so I go over it and there you have the wonkiness.

Now that I’ve finished up this swap, I can start on the Magic Yarn Ball swap on DSD.  I already have mine mostly done, but I’m waiting on something to come in before I can finish it completly.  This is so much fun!
