WOYWW 259 Wedding Suit

Hi everyone, last week on my work desk was a shirt and trousers I was going to make into a suit for my son to wear at my sisters wedding. 

Well firstly I gave in a bought a patten but I think you'll forgive me as he is only 6 weeks old. Whoever designed that pattern clearly has know idea how big a new born is as we (fairythoughts (mum) and I) must have reduced it by at least half if not more!! 

Secondly being the idiot that I am I forgot the take the shirt and trousers to my mums where I was going to have a babysitter (Auntie Lucy) so I could actually get it done! Thankfully my dad donated a shirt and we managed to get a skirt from a charity shop for 99p! 

After all that with a lot of help from

Mum with pattern cutting (I'm not as experienced with making clothes as she is!) and Auntie Lucy taking care of Kilian we managed to make a shirt, trousers and waistcoat leaving only the buttons for me to sew on when I got home in less than a day! Not bad really!! So here's the result 

 

He is going to look so cute in this! I will put a picture up next week after the wedding of him wearing it! 

This week I am going to make my mum a gold work and organza brooch to wear at the wedding which is my own design (I know! I don't normally leave everything to the last minute ;-) ).

Thanks for visiting!
