The Seaside Playsuit by Gail

You guys are the reason Tadah! is here. It's one thing to develop a pattern and quite another to see the amazing transformations that you manage to create with your fabric and pattern combinations. So we are very lucky to have some guest bloggers who have put their time aside to to tell you about their favourite Tadah! pattern and a little bit about their sewing. Today we have Gail from Scarborough - a little seaside town north of Brisbane in the Moreton Bay region.

Hi, I'm Gail and I've been sewing since I was about 12 years old.  It was my favourite subject at school. I could spend all day and every day sewing! I have made a lot of clothing for myself and my two daughters. But now my inspiration comes from my beautiful grandchildren.

I started out making them nursery items, quilts, taggies and toys. Then I started a Facebook Page called Bits n Bubs Handmade Crafts. Things just grew from there. I make custom orders for babies and children up to the age of 8 years. I now concentrate on clothing. I love picking from the beautiful fabrics and making play suits, frilly pants and dresses.

My favourite Tadah! pattern is the Seaside playsuit. It has so many options.

I think I have made more of those than any other pattern. I've lost count of how many I've made.

And I'm loving the long sleeve add on!

I choose mostly cotton fabrics. There are lots of beautiful designs. It's easy to care for, hard wearing and looks fantastic in all the clothing I make. I try various trims on the sleeves to vary the look of the playsuit.
