From beach towel to bathrobe

Thomas likes going to the swim lesson, but one thing bothers him: he's cold. After half an hour in the water he comes out all shivering and with blue lips. Poor guy. So dad suggested we get him a bathrobe to snuggle up in after class. It is not easy to find the right fabric for this on the bolt, but a beach towel works just fine. I used this project to try out the flatlock stitch on my serger. If the stitch is strong enough and holds up well it is ideal because it makes the garment reversible in one step.
Pattern: Ottobre

  1. Waarom begin je niet een online winkeltje?
    Prachtig wat je allemaal maakt :)
    Kijk maar eens wat een vriendin van mij in NL maakt, ook zo mooi. http://www.engeltjeroos.nl/
    De kleurtjes voor deze badjas vind ik echt stoer.
    Veel succes :)
