Tutorial Tuesday :: Ruched Romper by Sew a Straight Line



With temperatures still in the 90's across a lot of the country, and I have two friends about to have their babies, I thought a cute romper tutorial was in order for our Tutorial Tuesday spot.  Our lovely customer Sabra Gubler of Sew A Straight Line sent in this sweet Ruched Romper tutorial modeled by her lovely daughter Ivy.




The ruching technique is achieved with elastic and gives it a sweet bubble look and allows for plenty of room for cloth diapering:

    

    
  

The pattern is for 12-18 months and calls for 1/2 yard so if you size up or down adjust your fabric needs accordingly.   Pretty much any cotton knit will work for this.  Here is a few of my picks from the store:


    

    





Don't forget to send images of any project you make with Girl Charlee Fabrics to gcblog(at)girlcharlee(dot)com and you might see your creation featured in our next KnitPicks!

Happy sewing!
