Have you seen the new pattern over at MADE? It's for the cutest kid's beach robe made from a towel (or 2). Just in time for summer!
I made my daughter's first. I'm not in love with the towel color, but I'll be honest, I was being cheap about it. I needed 2 towels for the 4T size and these were $3 each.
I pleated the back a bit when I sewed on the tie. Made it a little more girly.
For the boy, I lined the hood with a cute Kaufman train fabric and added a matching pocket.
Perfect for a day at the beach.
Happy Summer!
Beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteAdorable Ruby! And I think the $3 towel is great :). Cute pocket too!
ReplyDeleteSo cute and I love the color!
ReplyDeleteI like the added touches on the boy robe. Great color selections as well. Does the pattern seem easy enough to stretch for larger sizes. I am thinking of getting it.
ReplyDeleteGreat job. I love the way these turned out. Oh, and just to let you know, I finally got up the courage to make a muscle tee using your tutorial. :)
