Made a romper this weekend

Baby Talk

I finally got around to making a romper. I made the size suggested by the chart which resulted in an outfit that’s too large…better than too small, I guess. Since Marissa (Grant) won’t be growing into it, I’ll make another one but smaller.

The staff at JoAnn’s loved her! One older lady was a bit confused…she said “Oh, you brought her in before.” I told her that was a newborn doll before and this doll is much bigger. She replied, “Yes, they grow fast.”

Aww, thank you, Starr! Looking forward to seeing yours. :slight_smile:

Great reason to make another doll! So she can fit the outfit you worked so hard on, at least that’s the reason I would use to justify another kit.

I love that outfit! It looks wonderful on her. I have tried sewing dresses according to the pattern size - I have yet to make a baby large enough to fit the “preemie” dress that I made! Maybe Ella Elizabeth will fit it! Or, if not, maybe Kimberlie or Gemma.

@4everbabies, I was thinking the same thing! :slight_smile:

Thank you, Mary! @Marydi

@Sony72 Sonja, sewing is an incredible skill that I got from my mom! As a teenager, my all-nighters were staying up Friday night into the wee hours of Saturday to sew a new outfit.

@Luvbaby Carol, those sizings are crazy, for sure! :flushed:
