Hello Cuties,

Tomorrow is the baby shower for my first great-grandson. You know I made his camouflage bedding for the nursery a few weeks back. So, I told my grandson at the time, I wouldn't have anything for the shower since I paid for half the supplies for the nursery set. Caleb didn't want me to, he said I did enough just making it for them. As I don't go shopping for too long anymore, it helped me to just split the cost with him, so he gave in.
I have picked up a couple bought outfits, but I decided today to make this baby gown, as dad loves camo. I thought the snaps were rather big looking, but it was quicker today than buttons and button holes, although I still had to make a button hole for the draw ribbon. The back has a deep pleat at the neck to give more body room. You may not be able to see!-lol- Hope you like it.
I made a burp cloth using this fabric for dad and papaw's hunting buddy. I guess I forgot to take a photo when I gave it to them. Oh well....Hope you have a great week-end-Toogie

Looks fine to me with the size snaps you used. Gosh with all the Camouflage and this woodsy print you will need a bright orange beanie on the baby's head to find him in the cot.
That being said I love what you have made.

I see the pleat - it is just like a man's shirt. OH I am so jealous - a great.
I have a great - he is just my darling sweet 21 yo grandson. I do not know if I will live long enough to see a Great. His father was 37 when he was born. If he takes after his father I would be 95 and I do not think I will make it.
