I am looking for patterns for infant boy clothes. I am going to be a grandmother in the near future and want to help my son and his wife have new clothes that were made by grandma. If you have any suggestions on where I can get patterns, your help will be greatly appreciated. I am looking for web links also.
I don't want to downplay your enthusiasm on sewing for an infant grandson-but are you sure the daughter-in-law wants home made infant clothes. The soft knits and terry cloth that baby clothes are made out of are not so easy to come buy at a reasonable cost. Consider cost of pattern, fabric, trimming, velcro, buttons and snaps, and I sure would go to a thrift store and purchase a lot of "almost new" items. Many have only been worn once or twice, some may never have been worn.
I'm sure you are going to garage sales-- don't forget church rummage sales-- Patterns are so darned expensive these days-- but my suggestion is this-- watch out for large size doll clothes patterns-- some will be just right for a newborn-- then get with your sewing friends and figure out how to make the patterns larger for future growth. Have fun!
