I took the basic Opal Baby set pattern and modified some. I think it turned out great. It took me forever to actually take the time to sew on the i-cord (yeah for i-cord mills!), and block and sew on the buttons, but now it's ready to go on baby.

Wieder ein Babyjaeckchen, diesmal mit i-cord Rand statt kraus rechts.

Voila un gilet bebe, taille 3 mois. J'ai mis une eternite pour enfin prendre le temps pour le finaliser, mais voila
