I've been on a mission to find a pattern for Little Pickle that would make use of some leftover fabric from one of Little Miss' dresses. With just nicely enough fabric to cover a new born's torso twice over I thought it would simple to find a pattern. How wrong I was!
After much valuable sewing time spent hunting I eventually bought this one and I'm so glad I did. It's adorable!! It's a fabulous stash buster and lends itself well to colourblocking so I'm sure it will get lots of use.
