Salopette

Some time ago I made these trousers for my son Jelle. These are the same as I made earlier for him. (See this blog) I used a different fabric and made them in a bigger size. These trousers are size 98.

Elephant Costume

Last April I made this elephant suit for my son Jorn. He played an elephant in the musical at school called "Bodo and the rainforest concert". He was one of the elephants that danced at the music from the Disney movie "Jungle Book". (That part from the movie when the elephants march through the jungle.) The pattern is very loosely based on a pattern from "Het Knippie Disney Verkleedklerenboek". The ears, trunk and nails are my own addition to make it a real elephant suit. The size of the suit is 116/122.

Carsweater and Jeans


Some while ago I made a sweater with a car and a bus and jeans with bend lines. Both patterns come from Ottobre nr.4, 2007. The orginal pattern of the sweater had a zipper in de seam of one of the raglan sleeves. It also had two additional car designs on the sleeves.
The original pattern of the jeans only had bend lines on the frontside. I added the same pattern on the backside of the jeans. I also made a fake zipper and elastic in the waisteband again. Both garments are in size 116.

Overall

I made this cool overall for my son Jelle. He now wears size 92. The pattern came from the magazine "Knippie" nr.1, february-march 2009. This time I didn't alter the pattern very much. I added some backpockets and changed a few decorative seams into real seams.

Doll's Clothes

I made some clothes for a babydoll. The doll was dressed to girly for the son of my friend. So I made the doll a little more boyish. The patterns come from the magazine Burda, with only Doll's clothes.

Pirate Costume


Thursday, last week, Jorn had to perform in the play at school. The play was about "Floddertje". Jorn was a child at a party. He wanted to dress up as a pirate. The patterns come from different magazines.

Black Trousers

Yesterday I finished these black trousers for my son Jorn. The pattern for the trousers came from the Dutch magazine "Sabrientje" nr.1 1999. I believe the magazine doesn't exist anymore. The original pattern had a zipper. Because my son hates "trousers with buttons" (as he calls them) I decided to go for a fake zipper and elastic in the waisteband.

Ska Trousers



Last weekend I made these ska trousers for my son Jorn. He is almost 5 years old and wears size 116. The pattern for these trousers came from "Knippie Idee" nr.2 2008. Of course I had to alter the pattern again too. The original design had cords through the waistband. Since my son always pulls these out I decided to use only elastic in the waistband.

Trousers for my son Jelle


Doesn´t he look cool with his mini Vans shoes on!

Last week I made these trousers for my son Jelle. He is almost 2 years old and wears size 86. The pattern for the trousers came from the Dutch magazine "Knippie idee" nr.3 2008. I altered the pattern a little bit to keep all the details in balance. I'm pretty happy with the result.
