Hey Loves!
I have really enjoyed my time at home. I have managed to squeeze in a few projects while I've been out with the boys. I'm going to miss my sweet and tough boys but I must go back to the money. Don't worry! I still plan to post at least one new thing a week. That means I have to make me time, so I can get some projects done. I think I can handle that.
Like last week, this week's post is thanks to my hubby. He likes the new drop crotch jumpsuits. He sent me a pic and said you can do this. I laughed because it was not really my style. BUT, hey, my guy likes it. So, I gave it a try.
I looked at it for a few weeks trying to figure out how it is constructed. I looked at a few in the store. I planned to draft my own pattern. Then, a member of one of the sewing groups on Facebook posted a tutorial for a drop crotch jumpsuit. Winning! I see no need to recreate the wheel. I followed the tutorial and whipped this up with fabric from my stash in about 2 hours (I had to try it on and adjust it a few times).
So here is it:
My hubby liked it and my friends thought it was cute. I was still on the fence but I wore it for casual Sunday at church. I got quite a few compliments on it. It was very comfortable. It also helps camouflage some of the baby weight. I plan to make a few more of these. If you'd like to make one, here's the tutorial:
