Adding a Bow to Rosie’s Bloomers Tutorial 

Happy Thursday!!  I am Melissa Gisiner, owner of Piper Sew Posh and I am so excited to be guest blogging for SLPco today!

I had the privilege of being a tester for Rosie’s Ruffle Bum Bloomers.  With that being said I’ve made quite a few for my girls.  These sweet bloomers are so versatile…make a simple bloomer or dress it up with layers of ruffles, a monogram, leg ruffles, decorative trim or as I am about to show you, a cute bow.  Who doesn’t love a good pattern with so many options?

Let’s get started.  You will first gather everything you need to make your bloomers according to the pattern instructions.  I am making the slim fit version with leg ruffles in this tutorial.  Here I have my bloomers cut out, leg (2) elastic and wait elastic, size tag (because I have 4 girls), my leg ruffles and leg bias tape cut and ready.

We can go ahead and cut our ties now for the bow we are adding.
I cut my two ties 5”x20” each because I prefer a large bow.  If you would like a smaller bow you can make your ties 3”x 16”.
