My niece Emmeline loves her chickens so for her birthday I made a chicken top. The pattern is from Ottobre 1/2008.I have made a few of these before. It is still one of my favourite Ottobre patterns. Emmeline was bigger then the biggest size for this pattern so I just lengthened it as it is quite a wide top.
I also made some Oliver & S Sandbox pants to match out of navy corduroy and some left over chicken fabric. As usual with any pattern from Oliver & S the pattern and instructions were great. The tips included in these patterns are fantastic. Once the girls had seen this pattern made up they were asking for a pair for themselves.
Cute clothes and cute fabric! I wish I still had some little ones to sew for....the fabrics are so adorable! You always do such a nice job....can't wait to see your single girl :)

You must have the best dressed girls and nieces in Australia! Very cute outfit.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous little outfit! Those pants might just be those perfect wide legged, pockets and elastic backed pants pattern I have been looking for. Lucky Emmeline.
