| Ivy Lucille - Altered Baby Clothes Pictures Here are some pictures of the baby clothes I've altered. Let me tell you. It is so addicting. Both Winston and Maggie have more clothes than most people. I love the fact that I can get really nice cotton onesies. I've made sure that one of the shirts in the picture is the side that I altered. For boys, I make it shorter so going potty won't mess up the shirt. For Maggie most baby onesies are too big on her and drags the floor so I sew in a couple of seams. 1st Picture - Little Nosey Maggie with Winston's manly clothes 2nd Picture - Winston with his boy clothes 3rd Picture - Little miss nosey with her girl clothes They are both wearing baby tanks.

| Maggie can fit into a premature clothes or 0-3 months. She is about 12 inches around her chest. She's a bit over 6 lbs. Winston can fit into 0-3 months, the 3-6 is too big. He is about 14 inches around and 7 lbs. Once you start doing it, you'll ge the hang of it.

| just got back from Walmart with an adorable preemie blue onsie. It has a little puppy on it and it says My Pal (I think ) anyway, they didn't have cute little girl ones that I thought would work. I did find 2 adorable little cardigan sweaters. One was white/pink and the other white/blue. I didn't get them but I am thinkin' about it. I "hid" them just in case I go back. I forgot to mention that it only cost me $2.88!!!!! Wahoooooooooo

| You just wait....you're going to get hook. Gymboree, Old Navy and Gap has good baby clothes too. Gymboree has the weight on it and everything so you can just figure out if your baby can fit into it. Thank you everyone for your nice compliments on my babies. They are my babies. I've always dressed other people's children but then they grow up and don't think my choices are cool. Winston and Maggie have no choice LOL I can dress them up forever.
