Rompers from a Shirt




My friend, Joyce, made these darling rompers from a great shirt she bought at the thrift store for $2.00.
1-Using the front of the shirt for the front of the rompers made the button and buttonhole process automatic.  She only had to do the top button.  
2-She made the appliques herself from scraps (very talented and skilled but you can do it too using under wonder, then stitch the ironed on applique, fun!).
3- The back is so cute with the little yoke.
The pattern is from Martha Pullan's book "Precious baby day-gowns.  square yoke collections with bubbles, bonnets, bibs & more. She modified the front, eliminating the pleats and gathers so it looks more boy-like.  The pattern book is available from Sew Beautiful.  She has had her pattern for about 5 years.  It has master patterns in it.
