KCWC (again)

Well, it sure is taking me a while to finish posting about what I made for the Challenge! Here's the nightie that I made for Emma.
Emma's much loved Disney Princess nightie was getting quite small on her, so I decided to refashion an adult sized nightshirt into a little nightgown for her. I didn't take any photos along the way, but here's how it turned out.

Using the Princess nightie as a pattern, I cut the original shirt down and cut off the sleeves and collar (all of which I saved to use).

I wanted to keep the original neckline and buttons down the front, but they were out of scale with a toddler's body size - so I put in a cute little gather in the back! That took care of the neck sizing, but then the original collar was too big so I put three little tucks on each side of it.
