Trying my hand at making jammies! I read all these posts on making jammies out of onesies. So im gonna try it! I went to a consignment store and got some really cute onesies for $.75!!! I cant wait to make some clothes for Bella! Any tips would be appreciated. I don't own a sewing machine yet, so im doing it all by hand. Any tips on doing a hem by hand would be wonderful. Otherwise Im just gonna wing it! lol. Ill post pics when im done! :) |
An iron would help. Start by making a fold along the edge of your hem; iron it, then go back & fold the edge into the fold; iron it again where you've made your new fold. Sew :) |

1 Attachment(s) Alrighty. I think I did this right. lol. Here is a picture of Bella in her little nightgown. I was afraid to do anything with the back feet yet. lol What do you guys think? Did I do ok for a first-timer? :) |
Awww how cute!! You did great and Bella is an absolute little doll in her new nightie:) |
Good job! Thanks for posting :) She looks really good in that color btw |
That looks adorable!!! I was going to try this too. Was just curious..how much does she weigh and what size did you get? |

Hm kaos stays between 4.5 and 5lbs I wonder what size I should get for him. :confused: |
I guess it all depends on the brand. For my boy chi I got a 3-6mon Faded Glory at Walmart ($2.00) and the length is perfect. Its a little too wide. For bella I bought some at a consignment shop. One of the newborn sizes was a perfect fit for my chi (but it was pink....and I wont let my boy wear pink. lol) So Id say go to a consignment shop, or walmart (the day after I bought mine they went on clearance for $1.00) and try a few sizes. Or just measure. hope that helps! |
