a 1" band to the bottom of the shorts and also trimmed them out with the hot
pink looped piping. The buttons are the medium new FUN buttons. "Mary" by

pulled them through the button hole and tied the bow!

summer contrast. This outfit has been pleated for smocking, we suggest a simple

*This ensemble was made up using the
size 8 pattern
We did pipe the entire top, you
can't find that kind of workman ship in any store bought ensemble. The slits
weren't that hard to pipe, you need to clip out a "V" instead of just clip.
We also used 3/4" covered buttons
for the back and covered them with the yellow.

Just
for Boys Creations By
Michie' Diaper Shirt & Shorts Adorable !
This is a size 18mo. A Great old fashion style! Shirt fabric is "Summer
Sailor" on the 3rd page of novelty prints. Shorts are made with
1/16"pima gingham 60" wide on Gingham fabrics page 3/8" buttons to cover
can be found on the button page. The shirt is piped in
the yellow shirt fabric. If you use 60" wide
fabric, only 1/2yd is needed for shorts and collar instead of
2/3yds. What a easy pattern!
Coming soon another view of this pattern with the "new airplanes" and
sunwashed chambray. Thanks
Jo
Another version of this Great Michie' Pattern The shirt fabric is the new Sun washed Chambray by
Spechlor Vogel The pearl buttons dress this version up a bit.
Creations by Michie Pattern #113 Comes in sizes 2-5 Fabric: Brown Glenn Plaid, 100% pima cotton Collar: Hand embroidered hand towel, Madeira
embroidered frogs
To make this collar, cut a 27" long by 3" wide bias strip.
Fold strip to measure 27" by
1 1/2" and seam up the ends. Now run two gathering threads across
the un finished edge and draw up to fit the neck from center back to
center back. I like to pipe everything , and this whipped stitch purple
piping just did the job!
Remember a
scant 1/4" bias at the neck and the arms are the prettiest!!
The lime is pique
The Pattern is Becky from Children's Corner
Buzz-
Buzz-Buzz!
Here's another cutie!
"Taylor" a new pattern from
Children's Corner WELL! I changed it a bit! The pattern has a lengthen line
which I cut and added a 1/4" seam allowance and made the outfit two-toned. They
made it easy for you to do, isn't it great!
The fabric is the new pique group
Bee's and Dots. Piping is the whipped stitched black and don't forget the baby
rick rack.
Can't forget the Bee Buttons!
Instead of snaps I used buttons and
buttonholes to close the bottom! This pattern worked up really fast and EASY!
Even with the piping everywhere.
