Reversible Dress Set for Baby girl…

This is Kwik Sew 3035 view A with some mods. I wanted to make it reversible and so I cut the back piece on the patterns “Fold line” instead of the “interfacing line” then I stitched the 2 dresses together and put them RST and stitched all but the sleeves a few inches along the bottom hem so I could turn it.

I finished the sleeve hems with bias tape but I dont like it.. need to find another alternative. Any suggestions?? you cant sew the seam while RST because it is a circular seam and wont “turn” out.  I dont want buttons/snaps at the shoulder either… Anyway, here is the dress.. bloomers are from that pattern too but the hat is a Newlook pattern I believe which I modified to be reversible as well.

Back snaps and horrible bias tape joining on the back sleeves:

Also, I just got a new Bottombumpers Cloth Diaper wholesale order today so I will be doing mostly Biz sewing for a few weeks.

  1. It looks gorgeous - I like the bias tape around the armholes! I am really enjoying your blog (sorry I don’t comment more often) - you make such lovely items. I am also a cloth nappy person - I made quite a few for my eldest daughter which are now being used for my bub!

  2. I love the print and coordinating colors. Great job.

    Not sure what else you could have done instead of the bias binding…

    With friendship,
    Lisa
