This is adorable!
I would like to try this but i don’t know if it will be hard to sew with that spandex material. Is it?
would this work if i trying to just make shorts and use a different material?
This is such a fun outfit to make… and the pattern can be used with other stretchy fabrics to make a t-shirt and pyjama shorts!
