Clothing for 'number five'

The wardrobe of Felix -sometimes referred to as 'number five'- is not really packed with new and vibrant clothes. Most of his clothes are hand-me-down items that are rather damaged and some of them just way to small.
The past couple of months he basically only got one homemade item. As he started nursery this week I urgently need to sew some new clothes for our youngest.
I started off easy by making a series of pajamas.


I made the pattern a couple of years ago and got inspiration in Kiind Magazine for finishing of the legs.



Next in the same series are blue Viking jumpsuit …



… and a grey Viking jumpsuit.



He also got a pajama with orange/red/white stars on it, finished with green cuffs.



And lastly we made a dark colored star-pajama with yellow cuffs.



He actually prefers to sleep naked, but the pajamas avoid him taking of his diapers during the night.


Not that pajamas are the kind of clothes he wears, going to school but it’s a start!
