Calico, I saw a sewing program sat on how to make these little cardigans from sweatshirts. You sure did a nice job. What a charming little jacket. The yoyos are so cute and the button centers really set them off. And the matching purse was a wonderful bonus for this little outfit. She will love it.

Is yours open on the front and buttons over or is that just a decoration? On the show they split it and then added little girl's rubber/cloth covered hair bands as frog type closures and big buttons. I really like yours but I am not good at buttonholes so I liked the hairband idea for closures. I think the show was "Sewing with Nancy". Thanks for sharing. Hugs, Shirley Mae

This is so adorable. When she gets it, I bet she will want to wear it to bed.

Your cardigan & purse are so cute! I'm sure she'll love them. You've done such a great job coordinating the fabrics. Love the yo-yo flowers.
