Sew along: B*trendy #9; bathrobe Quinn


The idea 
My girl saw this pinguin fabric at the fabric fair we went to. She really loves pinguins and I thought this would be the perfect project. I'll make the largest size possible that is allowed in the pinguin fabric. I want the pinguins to be at the bottom. 


The pattern
Bathrobe with lining, hoodie and pockets. 

Additional info:
  • 80-176 (EU) - 12 mo - 16 y (US). I make a 128 
  • Recommended Fabrics : cottons.
  • 3/5 
  • B*trendy #9 or download here made by oranges
The fabric
  • ca 1 meter cotton bought at stoffenspektakel. 
  • ca 1 meter wafle cotton through budgetstoffen
Cutting the fabric.
The bottom quarter of the fabric is blue with white dots and I will use this part for the sleeves. The second quarter is the pinguin border and the top half of the fabric is blue with yellow stars. This 3/4 width of the fabric is the maximum height of the pattern (mind you the hoodie is cut on; so a fairly long piece). It was long enough for a size 128 which means plenty of space to grow.
The pattern is made from a large back piece (with hoodie), front piece, sleeves and pockets. I didn't use biasbinding. but lined the bathrobe like I would a coat.
