Garment a Month Project: July

Last month was pajamas for the first born, so for July I thought I would make a jumper for our upcoming baby. She's due in the autumn so it has to be a bit warm. I thought a little jumper style dress, to be worn over a long sleeve shirt and tights, would fit the bill. Layers are always good in times of unpredictable weather.

I chose this pattern from Burda: Retro Redo Dress. The only modification I will be making is to actually make button holes instead of using velcro.



It looks fairly simple and straightforward, and probably something I could easily knock out in a couple of hours. Not to mention super cute. The hard part is going to be choosing the fabric. Decisions, decisions.....
