I never get to post much. But I do squeeze in a minute here and a minute there to look at everyone's wonderful work.

Here are a few things I made for my Daisi.
First, someone, don't remember who S&S'd an outfit made with this Madagascar material. So, Daisi had to have it. I used a Burda pattern for the capri's, and for the top, no pattern. Capri's are a size 5, very good fit for her bottom. I had forgotten to put in the elastic in the back when i took the pic. I have since fixed it. I tried to copy the top they had on the pattern picture. But of course, I had to be difficult and make it reversible.

I have so much of a problem finding her capri's that are not too long. She wears a size 5/ 5T in waist and bottom, but her legs don't seem to agree with that length. So, I made her these capri's. I altered a Simplicity pattern, using a size 4 for the length. I also only put elastic in the back and not all the way around, which gave her more tummy and belly room. The shirt is bought, I am still afraid of knits.

Thanks for looking

Thank you Meg! Luckily only one person noticed (sister) that the giraffes are upside down. LOL - I never thought it would end up that way because the animals are all going in different directions. I wasn't even trying to get both legs to match with the pattern.
