co-sewing

And here we are co-sewing away. After 15 minutes of rhythmical Bernina humming she fell sound asleep and I managed to sew a warm and cozy playsuit for her, made out of an old, very soft sweater of mine. I simply used one of her store-bought overalls as a guide to create a pattern and am quite happy with it's fit, – tight on those little cubby legs and some room to grow into. On the hanger the suit looks a bit wonky. Actually it probably is wonky.

And here it is in action, worn by someone very smitten with her new mobile.
