A few months ago I helped the Young Women in our ward make clothes for the Stake Pioneer Trek. Clare saw me working on one of the bonnets and wanted one, so I made one for her. The bonnet pattern had instructions to make ones for children too. It's a really cute bonnet, but I wish I had made it bigger. (Clare, apparently, has a big head) I also made a smaller version of the simple skirt and apron. Then, for the shirt, I found a cute children's "peasant" style shirt tutorial. It was pretty simple to make, except that I wanted to make the sleeves 3/4 length (the pattern is for short sleeves), and I added the length to the wrong dimension of the fabric pieces. So, I ended up having to just make it short sleeved, and then I added an extra piece to it to lengthen it after it was sewed onto the shirt body. Now Clare is all ready for the Stake Pioneer Day Celebration on Saturday!
