With the days and nights warming up I have realised Isabella has nothing but flanelette pj's which are getting to be a bit warm. So I decided to make her some summer nighties. I loved wearing nighties as a little girl and still remember a couple of them.
This is the first of her nighties. Very feminine and light to wear.
The pattern comes from this gorgeous book I borrowed from my sister...
Gorgeous patterns, but the only problem is, the instructions are all in Japanese!
Luckily, the pattern was fairly straight forward and I was able to piece everything together without instructions (it also helped that my sister had made a few of these dresses and I was able to look at one of hers as a guide).
The white cotton has a light floral pattern on it (also white). Both fabrics are from Spotlight. Total cost was about $5!!

It's a beautiful nightie!
So pretty, either as a nightie or a dress. I've made several dresses for my daughter in a pattern like this which I love. I plan to make her a few nighties for this summer too.
Beautiful nightie!
Bot nighties are very nice, I live the second one more because it has flowers all over!
So cute! We are on the other side of the world and now it is time to break out the flannel.
Gorgeous. I have that book too. I think this should def be on my summer sewing list. A good way to use up those spare flat sheets! Thaks for sharing.
