This is another great pattern by Michie. The most recent version I made was given as a gift from a friend.
I made it a couple of times this past Christmas, once for Lucy and once for a friends daughter with a matching Children's Corner Johnny for her son. It is a great pattern for a monogram or applique. Although her patterns require some hand sewing, it is well worth the effort and helps maintain the classic look and heirloom quality.
I made this one as a gift, but I love this pattern and hope to get a few completed for my own baby due in the next few weeks!
It is such an old fashioned pattern, but looks fun and modern with just the right fabric!
This may officially be my new favorite pattern. It shipped very quickly from Oliver+S after it was released on April 5th. So far, I have only made View A, the dress with pockets, but I plan on trying the shirt version next. It is a great dress for spring, summer and even fall and winter! Check it out layered over a long-sleeve shirt and some tights, still cute. Now, if only Lucy would stand still for pictures...
I just finished this for baby girl #2. The big sister version is in the works, I just have to go pick up some more green rickrack! I'm obsessed with this fabric. I think it's maybe the cutest spring kid fabric ever. I got it here.
For my birthday my mom got me the Swingset Tunic pattern by Oliver+S. She also, with Lucy's help, picked out some fabric for my stash. I have always wanted this pattern and was excited to get started. The Swingset Tunic also comes with a skirt, but I just can't bring myself to put Lucy in many skirts quite yet, so I added a large ruffle to the bottom to make it a fun summer dress.
