Few days ago, grandma had this fabric she gave to me to help her make outfit for her grandson who is almost 2years now, the fabric was one of the left over she had when she made a gown outfit from the fabric. With the measurement I took, I was able to make a long trousers for the child and a shirt.

The shirt was made the the combination of white fabric for the sleeves and collar which gave the shirt a beautiful and lovely outcome

At the center front, I made a button hole and used my hand needle and thread to fix four buttons at the opposite direction of the button hole and it was looking nice

After making the shirt and trousers, I still have some left over fabric if I was to make the outfit for a little girl and I have some left over as this, I would have used it to make a turban cap, scrunchie hair bow or an accessory to the outfit but for a boy, I just to of using the remaining fabric to make a short to make an extra for the outfit and it was a great idea as they all look nice.

This makes it a trouser, short and shirt. On the short, I inserted 1 x 15" elastic band on the waistline band while on the trouser, I inserted ½ x 15" elastic band because of the difference in the waist band.

Nice project, you did a very good job with the left over fabric.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

It looks pretty cool. Love it. It shows your skills. Thank you for sharing this. Keep up the good work!

Thanks so much for your comment

If someone stitch me the dress from my old grandparents I would be so happy. Wearing their dresses or recreation of those dresses usually turned out so beautifully.
Thanks for sharing with us.
