        Relaxing in the Ryan Romper It is so hot in the Chicago suburbs that I decided to try a new bubble romper for my  Cabbage Patch 14 inch boy.  (I think we are having record breaking temperatures of over 90 degrees.) To keep Ryan cool, I made this. Each romper will be unique depending on what fabric I use. This one is one of a kind. It is a darling blue cotton sailboat and tugboat print. You can see the listing here: Ryan Romper Let's start with the fabric. I only had a little bit left of this fabric but had enough to make this 14" romper. You only need about 13" of fabric. My doll needed to be measured to decide how much higher to make my bloomer pattern to convert it into this romper sized pattern. I added 3" which gave plenty of crotch depth. The center front seam was serged.  The leg bottoms were serged and 6 1/2" of elastic on each leg was basted on with a wide stitch. Finish the leg opening by zig zagging the elastic flat. I sewed...

I don't even know what my Easter this year will look like. It may just be my hubby and I sharing a meal together. Whatever it brings, we all need the hope of spring and newness of life!   I have been busy sewing all my new bunny and spring fabrics so you can pick out something fresh and new for your Cabby Doll. At adorabledolldesigns I love all things hooded. It reminds me of when my husband used to bundle up our daughter. These have been a favorite so I made new ones this season. For some reason, all my pictures disappeared so I will try again! They will all be grouped together.
