Bay's New Robe/Cover Up
I finished Bay's robe after making a trip to the local lame fabric store and picking up some terry cloth. I was really hoping to find something more brightly colored (royal blue, red) but my only choices were baby pastels. The olive green and cream were THE only viable option, so that is how it turned out. It ended up turning out pretty good after all. Not what I had envisioned, but nice and just what Bay needs for his shivering little body when he gets out of the pool!
I added rows of stitching along the belt, hood and front and bottom band for interest.
Here he is in Leah's bathroom trying it on. Now Eric wants one too...go figure! Anyone know how to adapt a pattern to fit someone 8 sizes larger?
