I'm so impressed that with the busy-ness of your life you still find time to make things for some lucky little girl you will likely never see! I know an easy way to make a reversible pinny, but I'm not sure how good my explanations are. Here goes!<br /><br />Cut two of everything, the back has to be cut with a seam at the centre back. Sew the shoulder seams only of each dress. Join the two dresses at neckline and armholes only, right sides together. Clip the curves so they will turn through evenly. Turn the dresses right side out through the shoulders. Sew centre back seams separately for each dress, leaving an opening at the top. Sew each side of inner and outer dresses together along this opening. Sew side seams in one pass from one hem to the other. Then either tuck in the hems and sew together, or hem individually (but bear in mind that one hem might peek out while being worn.)<br /><br />If you'd like a tutorial I'm thinking I might write one for my blog, would that be any help? <br />(Oh, and I am totally in love with your screenprinted trees by the way!)<br /><br />Cheers, JudyJudy Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11534664726068560177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-70299897035814105522010-05-22T08:03:50.442+10:002010-05-22T08:03:50.442+10:00I really love your pinafores - and the fabrics are...I really love your pinafores - and the fabrics are fabulous!

Everyday she gets to wake up and say 'I wonder what amazing thing I can create today! What can my mind think up as I work on my farm?" I never thought of it that way, but it must be true! I wish I was as prolific as you are - and I'm not running a farm or raising young children.

It's such a lovely fabric for a little girl. So much stuff going on for her to look at while she wears it! :)<br />I think the best way to make a reversible frock is to treat the second one as facings, only much bigger! That's how I'll be designing mine anyhow! But I do love the way you made a feature of your seams. Very clever. And I think Tammy Jame's idea of a second button would be the ticket! <br />Congrats btw to the two winners of your lovely giveaway!
