Yes, it's another diaper S&S from me... :eek: I got this fabric from Meg and I :heart: it; I really can't believe I did something for the biz with it, because I love it that much. LOL But I was going through my wool and realized that I had wool in the exact colors of each of the polka dots so I *had* to do something with it. :D T-shirt is the same Burda pattern I used last week and I really like it; it goes together so easily!

Close-up ~ I just stiched around the polka dots to attach them, since wool doesn't unravel anyway. Plus, I still have issues with appliqueing, especially on wool and with the smaller ones...

It's a Medium. Well the diaper is a Medium Trim anyway, and the shorts are Mediums as well. The top is sized 1T, which is about 24 months, but could go up into the 2 year age range, but not quite 2T I don't think...
Thanks mamas! :happy:

I :heart: love :heart: that print! Where DID you get it???? Really nice applique work there - that's a bit of time with all those dots but totally worth it! Really nice set - good job.

LOL Shecki! Well, if it continues to be mute to you, and you happen to see more of it, I'd take 3-4 more yards! :lol:
Sarah ~ Meg got it at her Hancock's I believe. I also believe that it's from the same manufacturer as the Baby Nay, although I don't believe it is Baby Nay. I just got a bunch of fabrics from Stephanie/TipToeFairy, that she got at Hancock's, and most of them are the same ribknits as the Baby Nay. I suspect that the manufacturer must have been holding all of the leftover fabrics, and finally talked baby nay into selling them because maybe they were out of space or something??? KWIM?
Love it!
That is an Alexander Henry print called Soft Spot-- I made a bag from a different colorway for Timmi a few months ago. This was the colorway I used: not my ebay auction. (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29818&item=6156796551&rd=1&ssPageName=WD1V).
I like how you did the dots on the pants--very cute!

Hmm, but this is a knit! I didn't know that AH did knits?!?!?! But you're right, it is the same print. And Meg said that they did have another colorway, in primary shades and that's describes the one that you linked (that I also do love LOL). Interesting, veddddy interesting!
Oh, I didn't realize it's a knit! hm. No idea, then. Maybe AH licensed the print to another fabric manufacturer.
