The pattern is for one half or one side of the full shirt. If you cut one on the fold of the fabric, you don't have to go to all the hassle of printing and taping and tracing, etc.Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02570052669027349279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420123617513988962.post-51172147267108254182010-04-11T18:24:42.484-07:002010-04-11T18:24:42.484-07:00Tammie- I went to http://www.themayfly.com/weblog/...Tammie- I went to http://www.themayfly.com/weblog/<br /><br />This blog and downloaded her free smocket pattern. I used wax paper to enlarge the pattern to fit Nadia (about a 4t). I just played with the shoulder straps, shortening and squaring them off more to do the top in this blog. Then instead of tying them together at the shoulders, I sewed two buttons back to back on each of the straps. It holds the shoulders together and looks like it buttons on both sides.Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02570052669027349279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420123617513988962.post-20707594456278278492010-04-11T17:40:20.916-07:002010-04-11T17:40:20.916-07:00the outfit is adorable!!! can you direct me to a w...the outfit is adorable!!! can you direct me to a website that has some hints/directions for making this pinafore or did you just figure it all out on your own? i want to make one so badly. or you know, since you have all this spare time, just make a couple for my kid wont you? thanks! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
