Tutorial: onesie with froufrou

Pink onesie with froufrou.

Here's another sewing project that's too irrisistible to miss out on. Remember the free onesie pattern? Oh, how you can make so many cute little girl's outfit with that.

Another take on the onesie with tutu. In this case, however, I assembled the onesie first before I sewed the tulle all over it.

Now, here's another design idea by CutieTots Shop.

Pink onesie with froufrou by CutieTots Shop.

It's all about the froufrou, and I made it only by accident. Below is the step-by-step guide.

What you'll need:

- less than 1/4 yard soft tulle in the color of your choice
- matching thread

Cut the soft tulle in strips of 4.5 inches x 85 inches. The longer and wider the strip, the fuller your froufrou will be.  

Fold the strip in half and hand sew a running stitch in the middle. When you pull the thread, the tulle will gather in the middle as seen on the photo. Once you've reached the end of the strip, secure in place.

Another view.

Then you'll have this.


After you finish making your froufrou, stitch it in place of your onesie like such.





What's missing here is my model. I'll have this blog updated once I get her to wear it. 

Happy sewing!
