Swing top in production!

I have about 6 self-drafted patterns that I'm hoping to submit to http://www.youcanmakethis.com/. This is a website that sell e-tutorials on how to make a variety of crafty things, and unlike the commercial pattern companies, the patterns for the kids clothes are true to size and have very detailed directions on how to make things, normally step-by-step with photos the whole way along. So great for the person making it, but not so great for the person drafting the tutorial.

I made Maia another swing top, taking heaps of photos as I went along, and spent about five hours making it into a tutorial. And then another three hours or so folding and scanning all the pattern pieces to be printed then reassembled. It's now with the lovely Crystal from Craftster to test out for two of her kids, fingers crossed... I'm very nervous!

The swing top is reversible and overlaps to the back with button closures, but also can be worn with either side to the front... so four ways!
