Burda Style For people who sew
Description
A gift for my friend´s baby boy. It is based on a Burda pattern but altered quite a lot. The idea of anteaters came from a BBC document about insects and insectivores :-).
Techniques used: machine embroidery, appliqué. The anteater heads on the jacket form upper edges of the pockets (the openings are on the side seams). I asked my son to make a model. He is definitely bigger than 68 cm but the clothes are still huge for him, so I suppose that the baby will wear them in the autumn instead of spring.
