Tutorial: T-shirt to Newborn Gown

by This is Carrie on August 11, 2008

Here you go! Keep in mind I got C’s in my college pattern making classes. It works, but it isn’t perfect. Let me know if you have any questions or need any clarifications.

Thanks for the pattern. I used it to make a baby gown out of 1/2 yard of flannel here: http://swishina.blogspot.com/2009/07/baby-gown.html

Thanks for the pattern and tutorial. I'm trying this tonight. Just finished tracing up the full sized pattern and now I'm resting my puffy feet before I start pinning and cutting.

Also, for those having PDF issues — go into your print options and select shrink to printable area or fit to printable area instead of None. I did "none" the first time and it was huge. When you choose the shrink option, it prints at 70% and is perfectly sized.

Just wanted to stop back and say I've made two of these so far and am loving them! They come out adorable and are so easy. Thanks for creating and sharing the pattern. You rock!

Thanks for the heads up on shrinking to fit the page. Like Jennifer, mine was printing larger than the page. I then went and drew back in the missing sections but that made for a HUGE pattern and I was quite fearful of it being TOO big for a newborn. Shrank to fit page and THIS looks like it will be perfect.

THANKS!
