OLIVE YOU – Valentine’s outfits!

February 13, 2015

A knit fabric group called Fabric Stache on Facebook offered up a sweet deal on some adorable fabric a few weeks ago, and I had to jump on it!  It was perfect for Valentine’s outfits for my kiddos!  Um, hello!  My daughter’s name is Olive! Olive You! Olives!  Ha – so perfect!!

I knew I was going to make O a dress and had recently seen and purchased the Nancy Dress pattern from Mo’s Boutique on Etsy.  I love the ruffled layers of this cozy knit dress.  It was a challenge but a learning experience too, because I got to play with my serger and practice a rolled hem.  I even switched out the thread color too!  Yay me!

Since my girl is tall and thin, I made her the 7/8 size which looks a little big on her, but that just means it will last a year or so right!

I had enough fabric to make little brother a matching shirt.  I used the Classic Ringer Tee pattern from Peek-a-Boo Pattern shop  (Love her patterns!).

With a bribe of a Valentine sucker the kiddos let me take a few photos in front of the house.  We got lucky, no rain and warm enough to not have a jacket on for a few minutes!
