Red Licorice Twist Romper

This is a picture of the romper I made as part of my Candy Shop entry for PTR.
The idea was to have this represent licorice.
This is a picture before I added the snaps on the bottom.
I had to make sure it fit first.

This little romper was extremely easy. I'm not sure what this fabric is but AFC-Express calls it Romper Shag Stretch Fabric. And just like they say, it works perfect for rompers.

To make this, I:
  • Used a onesie and traced it to make a pattern.
  • Adjusted the neck by making it wider so it would easily slip over the head.
  • Cut the two pieces (front & back) out & finished the edges.
  • Added about 5 rows of nylon chiffon ruffles, on the front and back.
  • Sewed the front and back pieces together.
  • Added snaps at the bottom, just like on a onesie.
It was pretty simple and in the midst of PTR, I was glad that this worked out well and quickly!

When it warms up and when my baby can stand on her own, then hopefully I can get a better picture of it, assuming it still fits her :) I should do a tutorial for this one and then I'll have an excuse to make another one!

  5. Awww! She is adorable, though I must admit I'm a bit disappointed. I was half expecting that you'd wrapped her up in Red Vines ;)
