DIY Baby Saree - For cute little princesses
I brought her fancy and
simple frocks, I brought her many pairs of Jeans, skirts and tees, I even
brought her princess dresses and ghagharas... but she was not satisfied.
She
wants a Saree, something like mamma has. It's a mystery why a little girl wants
all the things that her mamma has, while she's still a small girl, I refuse to
let her grow up, but sometimes it feels so cute, so sometimes I surrender. Like
this one, I got forced to make a saree for her.
But Me and my daughter, we
both are happy with the finished product. She loves it so much that she wanna wear
it all the time...
Here is the procedure how
I made this saree -
Materials - any soft
saree, cloth for lining (Astar), Sewing machine and materials.
Procedure -
1. Take two cloths, a soft
saree of size (204 x 24 inch) a lining cloth size (37 x 24 inch).
2. Stitch both the saree
and lining cloths on two sides (as shown in pic)
3. once saree and lining
cloth is stitched together, make 6 pates, 4.5 inch each, and stitch these
plates on the base part of saree (as shown in pic)
4. Attach 3 Skirt / pant
hook set to the saree. Hooks at the back side and closing ends on the front
side (As shown in pic)
5. Your saree in complete
now.
All the measurements are
based on my 5 yr old girl's height and waist size, so you may need to adjust as
per your daughters measurements.
6. Its like wrap around,
so while draping the saree, adjust the two hooks besides plates, as they should
come in front and in center, close all the hooks and drap the pallu, either
falling or gujrati style or anything that your daughter likes...
Do make one, they look
really adorable...
