Baby is almost one year old! I wanted to make something special for the birthday - as it turns out, it will be a few special things, not just one - but I digress. First up I have a Star Wars winter romper with a matching tie top hat! I've been dropping a few detail pictures of this on instagram, and I'm so happy with how it all came together! I started with a few different character fabrics, and the idea of a patchwork look incorporating the different prints. I also found a flannel with Star Wars "constellations" on it, which I decided to use for the back of the romper. I created a raglan sleeve with a contrasting high cuff - the burgundy fabric I used for the cuffs and neck was a jersey knit to give a little stretch. For the ankle cuffs, I wanted to try something a little different, so I came up with a fold-over tulip edge detail for a little bit of extra interest. A close up look at the snap crotch - an extra wide gusset shapes the harem like legs, and the ring snaps add extra durability. I used a medium grey thread for the whole project, adding a little contrast without standing out too much. Finished neckline and sleeve. The porgs are probably my favorite print on this piece. If you look closely, you can see that I created a top closure along the front line of this sleeve. The completed front, with a kangaroo pocket! I think the different patterns work together well here, with enough of a color scheme to tie everything together. I love how the hat turned out! Definitely something we'll be wearing with other outfits as well.
