ottobre pg shirt with a side of belly

I made the ottobre pregnancy t shirt. Size 42. Normally I wear large, this fit small, IMO. I'm planning a handful of these for pjs and the like and will try again with a stretchier interlock or something.

And for fun a belly shot. But this will be the last belly shot with no shirt as those nasty stretch marks that showed up in the last 10 days of my pregnancy are apparentlu on the return

I found the pattern fits small/tight too. I make a 38 normally for me, and I find a 42 fits much better, and a stretchier knit is a must!

But great job - and look at that tiny (for now!!) belly!

That looks great! How far pregnant are you, your belly is ADORABLE!!!

Is your sewing room in the basement or attic? I ask because we are about to move and these are my choices for sewing space.

thanks everyone. you've really made my day.

I am ~17 weeks. Baby's due 10/2. eeek! I should do one of those tickers so I'm forced to realize how much work I have for my job before this baby comes. eeeeek!

My sewing "room" is half of the finished area of the basement. Well make that almost-finished. We are planning on doing track lighting in the basement (hence the bare bulbs) and finishing up the trim. We aren't finishing the ceiling because we think it would be kind of claustrophobic feeling.

I like the basement, I should add that this side of the basement gets lots of natural light from the side windows. If our financial ship ever comes in we'd put a big window right behind my sewing desk. But in the meantime I LOVE having a dedicated space.
