Sunday sewing - nearly a week late...

After having a lovely lunch with our friends Claire and Stephen I had a great evening sewing. 

The vintage clothes man - Charlie - at the Thursday markets sometimes gives me a bunch of cashmere jumpers with the odd hole or two in them. So the plan has been to re-design them into babys clothes. Like I did to the yellow cardigan in this post. This Sunday a red turtleneck jumper met with the scissors and was turned into two snugly trousers for Aline. 

One using the neck as a waistband:




And an other using the arms as legs:




She is rather swamped by the overalls, but I'm sure she'll grow into them soon enough.

Let autumn begin - Aline at least will be nice and snug.
