Patrones No. 265, Models 41 and 42, Baby V Outfit
Done and Details
These little outfits are fun and quick to make because they are so small. This one is now finished and ready with a few other goodies to be shipped out to Baby V's parents. I did find my daughter's outfits in storage and got a measurement for the elastic, so the panties were a quick finish. (Thank you for the offer of measurements, Bunny!)
The dress was not too complicated, even though I made my own piping/binding for the neck and hem. I didn't really have to finish the dress that way, but I thought it picked up the pink in the embroidery nicely.
As you can see, the little sleeves are eyelet, too, which coordinates with the panties.
I even found some cute little buttons for the back:
I think the end result is cute and not overdone for a newborn. Let's hope her parents like it!
Parting Shot: Crystal Cascade. I was able to hike to Boott Spur on Mt. Washington on Sunday and along the way we passed the Crystal Cascade. Very pretty and not too far from the beginning of the Tuckerman Ravine Trail in Pinkham Notch.

Gorgeous photo of the Cascade.
This little dress is very very sweet. Love those buttons. They look very vintage and are just perfect.
Wow! This is so cute! I don´t have smsall children to sew for so I am not very interested in dresses for small girls anymore. But this is so lovely that I fall in love with it. Perfect sewing!

So cute and beautifully done! Is that a French seam I see in the third picture? Lovely embroidery. And a beautiful shot of the falls! I love hiking myself, though having recently moved to northern California I have yet to investigate the nearby trails. I love it that you combine your love of hiking and love of sewing on your blog. Two passions that I share! Thanks for writing!
Oh, it is so cute. Love the embroidery
That's adorable! I wonder if RTW would have ended the piping the way you did?
So cute! Baby clothes are such a great way to take a break in regular sewing (unless that's what you normally sew :D). And it's almost instant gratification. Thanks for the shot of the Crystal Cascade.
This outfit is just sooooo sweet!
So LOVELY and PERFECT, Summerset!! I love seeing beautifuly sewn baby clothes,.... The other day I went shopping for my goddaughter and was very disappointed with both the quality and the price tags...
