I came upon your blog after seeing your ...Hi there! I came upon your blog after seeing your review of this on sewing patterns.com. I have a question about the construction, if you have time. I'm currently making this for my 4 year old and am to the part of sewing the midriff piece on the bodice. The instructions say to baste it, but then never instruct to sew it with a smaller stitch. Did you do this? I'm also assuming I'll need to trim down the seam allowance because it's quite bulky with the lining, petals, and bodice.

You must have the ability to see past some of those awful over the top, frilly, too cute, sugary sweet, twee pictures on patterns. Seeing yours makes me want to make one. Had I of seen the pattern first I would have passed it by. Great job! I actually prefer it without the rose and the band at the bottom.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17673846.post-79868025226127820302014-02-26T23:36:38.684+11:002014-02-26T23:36:38.684+11:00Oh Tyger is SOOOO cute.
