After wearing my elephant print romper in several occasions, I grew to like it very much. So I decided to make another one for my shop. As nehmah from burdastyle have suggested, I call this ‘sunsuit’ instead of ‘romper’. Sunsuit sounds adorable!
This time I’m using Sevenberry cotton fabric with ochre bird and leaves print on it. I make the straps detachable for easier wear, and then I found out that this means that this sunsuit can also be worn as pants!
I’m actually very nervous about making clothes for other people. When I make clothes for myself, or my son and husband, I can see how the clothes fit me or them. I can also immediately see what’s missing or too much on the clothes. I’ve made one outfit that I sent to my best friend, and until now I’m still wondering if the outfit really fits her comfortably or not.
Maybe I’m just too fussy about this. But I can’t help it.
Anyway I’m making my first try this time. After all there’s always a first time for everything, isn’t it?
On the other hand, I really like this bird print. Maybe I’ll make one for myself then.
Oh, I really like this sunsuit. You are just the right 'everything" for the style. I followed this over from the racer-back sundress/coverup on BS. I'm pleased to have found the site. My luck at locating blogs on my own is "iffy" to say the least.
