Hello friends!
I have been sewing a bit more of late and wanted to show off my sweet baby girl and our matching shirts I made!

Ever since
we found out we were going to have a girl I wanted to make matching outfits for
us! I am not big on super matchy-matchy stuff but honestly doesn’t every mom
and daughter need at least one outfit that goes together? Well I finally
ordered some fabric and made sure to get enough for both of us!
I feel like sewing has really taken a back burner for the last year and really that is the way it should be after all, I’m a mom of 5, homeschooling again, and sewing is not my number one priority all the time (sad I know but life, ya know ;)
Anyways back to the outfits, I recently discovered Patterns for Pirates from a friend and so I bought a few of their patterns so far I love them! They are easy and the best part is No Cut pages seriously, it saves me sooo much time when getting the patterns ready!
The patterns I used for Violet are free patterns of theirs the Wee Lap Tee and Petite Pegs. I made them following the measurements but found I needed to size down on the leggings I used the 12 month size at the start but they were too big so I sized down and they fit Voilet perfect now!
My shirt is the slim fit raglan and again I had to size down from the size I measured for, I asked about that on their Facebook page and no one else seemed to size down so I think it may just be my body or measurements combined with how I like my shirts to fit. I LOVE, LOVE this pattern and how easy it was to sew up! Plus the directions were amazingly great, a must for pdf patterns.
I love our matching shirts so much and I LOVE having this sweet girl in our family <3
