Gingerbread Nightgown

Vintage Simplicity 3503 size 4 increased in width to size 5-6.

Alexander Henry Christmas fabric with accents of brown polka dot. I also used vintage pink cotton rick rack and vintage pink buttons.


I don't care for flannel sewing because of how much flannel fabric pills after a couple of washings - it's like the prettiness goes away. I solved my idiosyncrasy by lining a cotton woven instead. You'd think this snuggly flannel was a true coordinate made for the print. I love the little "Especially Handmade by Mommy" tag.



The belt tie was a fun feature!


Another garment sewn using my vintage Singer Featherweight 222.
