a new outfit for Sonja

I finished another outfit for Sonja!

It’s Mccall’s 5118

(which I can’t find a picture online for, I’ve had the pattern for maybe 10yrs… hmm)

I had first picked out this hello kitty fabric and cut out the pieces to make the shirt and long pants a few months ago, then the weather got warmer quickly and I was not LOVING the fabric)

The other day I wanted to start something else for Sonja and I asked her what her favorite color was and she said purple, and I lifted her up to pick a purple fabric from my stash and she did but then right next to it was pink and this HK fabric was not even at the top and she squealed and sais “oh look Hello Kitty fabrics” so that got me going on actually finishing this outfit!

I had also added some pink island batik for the flounce and bottom of the pants (the pants were supposed to be one fabric but I modified the pattern and add this at the bottom)

Here’s the front and back

Then I tried to get some pictures that were not so posed 🙂

The pants are bit long and the outfit sort of looks like pajamas, but she doesn’t care and maybe she won’t wear it out until the fall anyways, so she will have grown a bit by then 🙂

I’m happy with the result and as long as she likes, that’s all that matters!

    So Cute! I'm still waiting for my son to give me Jellie's measurements. Guess I'll have to take a trip and measure her myself! L
