I made this onesie and skirt for a friend's baby. I used an iron-on fabric between the apple and the onesie, I ironed, and sewed.
I looked for a while at different skirt tutorials, because I wanted one where I could use a rectangle of fabric so the stripes would line up. I finally found a r
eally great skirt tutorial, and it's adaptable to any size!
Here you can see where someone has adapted it for a baby.
I also found this very useful chart for baby and toddler sizes that helped me figure out the dimensions for the skirt.
While making the skirt I felt like I had too much elastic for the waist, so I cut off a couple of inches. Elastic can be added or taken away without too much trouble, even after the skirt is finished. It was a really fun project, and I will definitely be making more of these skirts in the future!
Little Adelaide is going to be one lucky girl!
