i know they are traditionally for little girls but dd really likes those cross-back pinafore/smock things

and she wants bloomers instead of bike shorts for under her dresses.

any one have directions/pictures of how to make them?

i cant find any patterns for her size.

thanks maggie

And here's another for bloomers:

Don't know if this one goes large enough for her, though...

And if you check out your local Hancocks and JoAnns fabric stores, you can sometimes get the patterns for $.99 each....

Sense & Sensibility have a beautiful pattern for little girl’s pinafore and pantaloons! I haven't tried this one, but I have used others and they are very high quality and well thought out....you won't be disappointed. The creator of this patter is available for help if needed too!

Here is the link.

I have the Sense and Sensability pattern myself but haven't made it either. Folkwear also has some great patterns also; I have the child's pinafore pattern on my sewing table, getting ready to try it!

she probably wears a five -she is small but will be 6 this summer - im not sure as we have been buying larger size clothes to get a modest fit.

the links are good-thanks

that sense and sensibiltiy site is lovely but im not sure if my sewing is good enough!
