[Ansteorra] Ansteorra Digest, Vol 10, Issue 15 - Children's Clothing Question

Was the T-tunic buttoned up the front or just open like a vest?  Thanks for the info.  Haleigh will be 6 weeks old tomorrow, so she has a while before she'll walk.  But I'd like to make something that will be "appropriate" when she meets Their Majesties the first time yet can handle getting dirty frequently.

Thanks,
Genevieve

  I found that a "long chemise" (Vivianne's first one was about a foot longer than she) under a modified "T" tunic (open up the front) worked very well. I only had to make 3 of the chemise part and 5 of the modified "T" tunics. When she started walking that was a whole other game - then it was pants and regular "T" tunics to match - again long "rolled" ( roll up about a half inch 3 - 4 times and tack the last roll)hems on the sleeves and legs made for decorations that could be let out for growth spurts. Now that she is almost 5 I can still get away with a "T" tunic dress but it must be PINK (yes I meant to holler)!

    Good luck with the stitching :)
