Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made two Peter Pan collar jackets last weekend. One jacket is for my soon to be born nephew and the other for my best friend’s baby. I followed Kwik Sew’s 3127 pattern and used two different fleece – a stripy one and a dinosaur one from the baby sleeping bag I made the week before. I’ve had my first sewing disaster though as the fleece I started with does not want to bounce back after stretching. You can see the making of the jackets on my blog:
Material Notes
Fleece, resin snaps, woven cotton as lining for the collar

Thank you! I’m enjoying baby sewing a lot, I think I’ll get a shock when I restart adult sewing again (with all the fittings and pattern alteration….)
