Doodle

This month Big Sis chose a project from Minerva. A stretch fabric with a doodle pattern and a dress pattern with plenty of variations. Minerva have quite a range of stretch jersey fabrics at the moment which would be perfect with this pattern. 


She chose View D from McCalls M7079 with the softer waist fitting rather than gathers.If you have an overlocker this project is a breeze. It would also be fine on a regular machine using stretch stitch too.

I made it a while ago. She took it to France on holiday because it was comfy to wear on the aeroplane as well as being another outfit with leggings and a cardigan for later in the evenings.


There was just enough left over to make a long sleeved T-shirt for when the sunshine has gone away and Autumn pops up again. AND Little M asked if there was enough for her to have a bit of the fabric too. This pattern is one of my favourites from Ottobre.





Thanks for dropping by. Jo x

  1. How very sweet!

    These gorgeous outfits remind of the fact that I have a completely new piece of fabric that Annie chose a while ago for a dress. It is light blue and has wee trees on. Woven. As Annie is now at the stage where cute won't do, I was wondering if you might want it for your girls? Let me know and I'll take a photo to show you it. xx

  4. Lovely fabric and pattern. I'm so glad the fashion is for girls to wear dresses again. We have seen a lot in Mablethorpe and the girls look so pretty in them. Models are getting more professional every day they will want you to pay them a fee soon.

  7. Both of these are great. Loving the dress, will investigate that pattern for my little one. The t-shirt is super, that yoke, lifts it to something special.
