Here's a close up of my Ireland with the heart over Dublin (that's where U2 is from for those not in the know about them). It's not a perfect match, but that country has a very jagged coastline which makes for very hard stitching!!! Philip thought maybe I should stitch the word Dublin or Ireland on it to make it more clear. I am torn. I kind of like the cryptic nature of this, making it an inside thing for her and her close friends. But then again, will it be embarrassing for her to take her baby out in it and have people think she is wearing some totally horrible interpretation of a bear?? That's what Amelia was calling it. Thoughts????
The over the shoulder bow unties completely to help it get over little heads without stretching or being too low. I used this tutorial but wanted it to be higher on the neck, so the usable bow was a good solution for me. It's all jersey knit tee material, so it's soft, comfy, washable and breathable.
I was going to make the leggings ruched, but they were so tiny, it wasn't working. So I decided to leave it raw. I kind of love the way raw jersey curls and looks too. Plus it's easy with no serger!!
Hopefully her little baby looks cute in it and she can get some use out of it before it gets too cold.
How cute and creative. I love the tie at the top. I agree w/Phil and think embroidering Dublin or Ireland is a good idea so it's obviously a country. She'll love it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Philip.
