McCalls 5415
May 29, 2008
A little top for Fidget. Sorry about the teeny tiny peek here but I just can't get a decent shot of this thing to save my life. Is it because it's white? Because my camera doesn't like trying to focus on the eyelet? Because I'm really quite thick when it comes to cameras? Eh, I don't know. Probably a combination of all three.
What I do know is this little swingy top is super easy. McCalls 5415. No buttons or zippers or anything. The simple (really, it is!) facing in the top is used to make the casing for the elastic. That's about as fancy as it gets. I've still got it pinned in the front because I haven't been able to wrangle Fidge into it to measure the straps... maybe when I do, I'll be able to get a full shot.
I can't wait to see the rest. I love eyelet in the summer. Perfect.

I'm looking forward to seeing the whole thing - it looks adorable, as did those pillowcase dresses.

What are the head measurements for the hats? I've been searching for a cute pattern for hats for K. This might be the one...
