I have a great friend (who shall remain nameless) who used to say that adorable little baby kids things made her “ovaries twitch.”
Well these little bloomers have got to be the twitchiest things around. This is one of Heather Ross’s patterns from Weekend Sewing. The strange thing is that – all the times I flipped through that book, referenced it, made garments from its patterns – I sort of never noticed this pattern. Or really absorbed it. But then, this summer at Heather’s workshop, Amanda made a pair and I happened to walk by as she was finishing them. Their cuteness stopped me dead in my tracks, with their fluttery edges waiting to cinch around chubby little legs, and the empty seat waiting to be filled out by a be-diapered little bum.
And in addition to the twitch factor, they're superfast to make for all the wee little ones in your life.

they are so cute! I'm honored to have been the recipient of a wee pair. though my ovaries are done twitching for this lifetime!
twitch, twitch! Can you make these in adult sizes??
Renee, that's a great idea! I've often thought that we should have adult bloomers to wear under cute 1960s vintage dresses since I usually find them a bit too shirt. Until I figure out how to upsize this pattern, I'll have to keep wearing my minis over my leggings...:)
