This is my 4 month old granddaughter, Isla (Eye-La) Rose. Our first granddaughter and we have been having so much fun with her. My daughter asked me to make a sun-suit for her 4 month professional pictures. She found a pattern on Etsy and picked out the fabric.

 I have been sewing for 49 years...since I was 8, but have not made a baby outfit since I had my kids.

Here is Isla in this outfit, in all her cute chubbyness!

My daughter made the headband with the leftover fabric. I taught her to sew even though she didn't want to learn as a teen and now it is coming in useful for her. She makes her own curtains and pillows and now things for Isla too.

 This last one needs a caption because of the pose and the look on Isla's face...

Maybe, "I told Mommy it's time to go see Grandma!"
