Sunsuit & Diaper Bag

I made this sweet little vintage-styled sunsuit for Miss K. Grandpa wonders if the child ever wears anything but pink :-). I guess I'll have to work on that.

Pattern Amanda's Playsuit by Bonnie Blue. It was pretty straight-forward, but I'll make some changes next time. Less hand stitching, a few other minor changes. The bonnet instructions were really funky, so that will require a major redo!

Miss K wears size 18m in ready-to-wear, but I heard that these patterns run big, so I did it in a size one. Fingers are crossed that it fits. I do wonder if Miss K will sit still long enough for mommy to put this on her ... it buttons on with 2 back buttons and 2 front.

I also made this cute set for a friend at work who just became a grandmother. The style of the bag is called a "Sunday Diaper Bag" ... just big enough to take along a few necessities. Inside the bag I included a flannel burpie with a Stud Muffin design and a portable changing pad.

This was a fun set to make, and I hope to make more as more of my friends discover the joy of grandparenthood!
