OK ... admit it ... this is pretty cute! right?
Picture
Cuter, still, modeled by an actual baby.
Picture
This was a licensed costume I really enjoyed working on.
Picture
Even though I am copying official characters, I have to come up with a design and plan that will work for the situation. In this case very small babies.
Picture
So, I simplified things. You can read some of the choices I made to make these costumes work but not be to complicated in the upper right corner for this sketch.

My sketches had to be sent to DC comics for approval before I could start actually making them. Which I will talk about in my next blog post.
Picture
Here are the photos I took before sending these costumes in. You can see how the boots are sewn to the tights and see the snap open crotch for diaper changes better in these photos than the one on the envelope.
Picture
Same for Super Girl.
Picture
And we decided to make Bat Girl really girly ... all pink and pink.

There are two hats there because I made it up in two sizes to ensure a good fit on whatever baby model was used.

Next time some sewing pictures.

    I am a commercial pattern maker who is now "sewing over 50"!
    I love to sew and hope to encourage others to come back to sewing.
