The Rockin' Baby Gown has definitely become my go-to baby gift. One of my college roommates is a serious sports fan (they had the most awesome baseball-themed wedding), so as soon as I received an invitation to her baby shower, I knew exactly which shirts I needed to find to refashion into gowns.
Both tees were adult smalls, which weren't big enough to cut the sleeves from, so I dug in my stash for coordinating colors. The Brewer blue is a closer match to the printing in person than it looks in the photos.
I'm not quite as crazy about the yellow sleeves, but anything's cute on a baby, right? This was the first time that I just hemmed the neckline with a zigzag rather than finishing it with ribbing. Generous use of spray starch made it go smoothly -- much better than I'd anticipated.
The Brewer gown was pretty much the same as the ones I'd made previously. I really like the look of the sleeves and neckline in this color combo.
My friend's husband is a Yankee fan, but he'll just have to deal. ;)
Someday I want to get together with you and sew. :)
