Not Just a Sunsuit Day 3 – Lots of Fun Hacks

Today on the Paneled Sunsuit “Not Just a Sunsuit” tour, we have five amazing bloggers!  There are a lot of fun hacks made to the pattern so let’s get right to it!


Scary from the Shaffer Sisters, added jersey shorts to the above the knee length skirt to turn it into a skort!  You can see more pics and read how she added the shorts here.

Michelle from Falafel and the Bee made TWO jumpsuits and they are both so good.  She added a patch pocket to the front bodice of one (to make it more overall bib-like) and the other one she did a little something neat to make it extra warm for the coming cool weather.  Check out both jumpsuits here.

As usual, Olga from Kid Approved used the most lovely fabrics.  She made separates and added a bit of length to the cropped tank so you’ll want to go over and see the details by clicking here.

Rachel from Once Upon a Sewing Machine also added some length to the TWO cropped tanks she made for her girl.  She shows you how she added the band and I just love how nicely finished her method looks.

And last (certainly not least!) Nienke from Pienkel used some of my favorite stars fabric to make her girl a lovely jumpsuit.  I forget how much I love the jumpsuit view until I see kids wearing it.  You have to check out the adorable pics of her girl!

Once again this baby surprised us. Yesterday morni Once again this baby surprised us. Yesterday morning she just started counting to ten on her own ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† She was star struck watching herself on the camera so she didnโ€™t go past five here, but in person she rolls right past ten and tries for 11 and 12 ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
You guys, this girl is having a real hair moment. You guys, this girl is having a real hair moment. After waiting literal years for her hair to grow in, itโ€™s now turned into an 80โ€™s rocker look with how spikey it all is on top and the extra length in back๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† 
But we LOVE this Journal Jumpsuit from @jennuinedesign and she LOVES wearing it to jump on the couch. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Sheโ€™s a real talker these days so I had to use the Story Teller cut file, also from the Lounge Library collection.  Check out @projectrunandplay for the details on the sale on this pattern this week only!
Fabric is a lush French terry from @knitfabricdotcom and the contrast is a solid from @wolfandrabbitfabrics

Have you seen the mini season of @projectrunandpla Have you seen the mini season of @projectrunandplay details yet?  Iโ€™m super excited about everyone sharing more of the Project Lounge Library collection and the freebies weโ€™re offering!  First up is this perfectly sized book tote from @jennuinedesign. My girl LOVED the one I made from the second she saw it Christmas morning!  The cut file design is also from the collection as well as her nightgown ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
Thereโ€™s a whole Percy Jackson collection inside there along with three other (heavy) books, so itโ€™s a nice sturdy tote that holds plenty!

Well itโ€™s not as many books as Iโ€™ve read in pa Well itโ€™s not as many books as Iโ€™ve read in past years, nor did I reach my (what I thought was an easy) minimum goal of 50, but then again all that was set back in January before I knew Iโ€™d have very little time to myself for 3/4 of the year ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿคช 
I read lots of different genres, including a few oldie juvenile favorites to preview for or read alongside my daughter. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•
Some were book club reads and some were suggestions from Instagram friends, but I really enjoyed them all. Of course the new Louise Penny was my favorite ๐Ÿ˜

I've always loved making. At an early age I started cross stitching and sewing and I taught myself to knit and crochet during college. When our seven year old daughter Bean was born I was filled with all sorts of inspiration, so now I find ways to manage my crafty time and treasure those moments. Though sewing is what I'm most passionate about these days, there's something about the portability of yarn crafts and embroidery that keeps drawing me back in.
