Romper update: Finally completed

Remember the romper I blog about here with the picture above. I’ve finally managed to complete it this morning after my notion shopping at Karysma yesterday. I love making button holes with my Brother machine. Even Arwen is fascinated with it. She’d sit on my lap as we watch the machine does it’s magic. You can see the look of awe on her face.


 Some close up pictures of the romper. I use snap buttons for the crotch opening. This is super handy when it comes to diaper changing. The white band is a cotton twill tape I used to modify instructions a bit which serves as reinforcement for the snap buttons. The original design uses snap tape, but this should work all the same.

Some of you asked for the patterns. In case I’ve forgotten to mention it in my earlier posts, it’s Simplicity #3852

You can get it online at sewingpatterns.com.

I’ll be updating lilarwen.blogspot.com if there’s any mommies out there interested to have this romper for their lil’ boys.

  2. Thanks Zura. You’re so generous with your compliments. I hope it doesn’t get to my head :) the snap buttons came together when I bought my snap press from Tiny Tapir
