my grandmother is the most amazing woman ever! I showed her this picture of what I wanted for Carson's Christmas Eve outfit. I refused to pay the outrageous price that Pottery Barn was asking for it, but thought my sweet boy would look so precious in it that night. And while I do have some (and by some, I mean very little) sewing skills, I didn't think I would be able to tackle this knock-off task. Grandma rose to the challenge and did a fabulous job!
Here's the original...
And here's Grandma's version...
Thank you mom for the precious monogramming!
All in all, what would have cost me $40 ended up a whopping $2.50! Yep! The fabric was only $2.50 at good 'ol Wal-Mart. Grandma still has to make the little jacket that goes along with it...I'll post pictures of that when it's finished!
The lesson here? Ladies, learn to sew!!
