With lots of room to play and go about important toddler jobs 🙂
Let’s get started!
1. First off you’ll need to get your patterns printed. I did a mash-up of the 2t bodysuit and the 24 mos. romper. I used the bottom half of the romper but lengthened the hemline a bit so I could I could do a standard hem instead of a binding. You can definitely keep it as-is I just wanted a quick sew 🙂 For the top half I lined up my front neckline of the bodysuit with the romper neckline and then traced out the top portion of the bodysuit. The bodysuit is quite a bit narrower than the romper so I narrowed it down a bit along the side seams. I ended up narrowing through the legs a bit since Will is very slim but for most kids I would keep the legs the same and maybe widen the top a bit instead.
Here’s my altered pattern all ready to go:
And all cut out
To sew up the romper I used the bodysuit instructions for the top half and the romper instructions for the bottom. Quick and easy!
Have fun with it!

Where are you finding fun colors of binding, like the bright yellow used for this romper? The color selection at Jo-Ann is rapidly dwindling. Thanks!
Is the bodysuit variation in the pattern? I haven’t bought it yet, but seeing all the variations…I may buy the whole set to make for baby shower gifts!!
