Michelle from Daydream Believers shares a tutorial showing how to add rows of ruffles to a diaper cover to turn it into Ruffle Bloomers. These would look so cute peeking out of the bottom of a baby or toddler dress! Get the tutorial.

Make an Easter basket that kids will love when you sew it from scratch! When you sew a fabric Easter basket, you can choose exactly the colors and prints that suit your child’s personality. And you can use the basket year after year for a handmade Easter tradition.
Baskets are not as hard to sew as you’d think they’d be. The construction is actually pretty simple. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways to add extra personality with details. We’ve rounded up 12 sewing tutorials showing how you can make your own fabric Easter baskets. There are even a couple of no-sew tutorials if you’re short on time.
These fabric Easter baskets are all so cute!! And they’ll be even more fun once they’re filled with eggs, and the Easter bunny has visited and left treats in them!

Would love this pattern for my great-granddaughter? How do I get it? Thank you for your help. This is precious. Live in small town, have two dollar store to shop in. I sew and I have to get items I need on-line.
Maye,
There isn’t a pattern for this particular tutorial. She uses an existing pair of bloomers and then adds the ruffles. If the bloomers aren’t available in your town, you could try making them yourself. Here’s a good tutorial for making a basic pair of bloomers:
