Another summer nightie for Katerina

I was about to start working on some back-to-school clothes but Katerina pleaded for another nightie. This is the same pattern, Kwik Sew 3105, that I used for the previous two nighties.

Some past sewing

These are a few PJs for Joshua and a nightie for Katerina that I had sewn in late April/early May. I was having some computer issues so I hadn't had a chance to upload the pictures earlier.

I just love this picture of Joshua. He is such a clown. This PJ and the next one are from the New Look 6131 pattern, size 7.





The following pattern is Kwik Sew 3042, size M.





This nightie is from the Kwik Sew 3105 pattern, size M. I used this pattern to also make the nightie shown in a previous post.

Summer nightie for Isabella

This is actually the second one I made for Isabella from this pattern. I still have to take a picture of the first one but the nightie is in the laundry hamper. The pattern is Simplicity 9242, size 4. I altered it slightly.

I sewed one shoulder seam, serged it, then I serged the neckline. I pressed the serged neckline under and then sewed the lace on the neckline. Then, I closed the other shoulder, serged the seam, and tacked it down.

Then, I serged the open arms, pressed the serged arms under, and sewed the lace on. I closed the side seams and serged, with tacking the arm seam down.

For the ruffle, instead of folding it like the pattern suggested, I closed one seam and serged the bottom. I folded the serged edge under and added the lace on top. I then closed the second seam. I attached the ruffle to the body by gathering, and serging. Then I top-stitched the ruffle seam to the body.
