The pattern is called the Bubble Romper Pattern by Tie Dye Diva, who has an awesome Etsy shop filled with adorable children's patterns. I made size 6-12 months from the newborn to 24 months pattern. There is also a size 2-6 pattern version available.
The pattern directions are super-easy to follow, even for a garment-making novice like me, and include options for serger and non-serger fabric cuts and techniques. For the fabric, I opted to use one print for the whole piece - Floral Zest in Fashionista from Hello Luscious. But the pattern shows how to mix and match different fabrics too.
What I love best about it is the ample-sized bottom that covers Ellie's cloth-diaper, which is bulkier than disposables. Finding pants that fit her cloth-diapered rear has been a challenge. Of course, we have disposables as back up (you can see the box of Huggies in the background of the second photo), but 95% of the time, she's in her bumGenius.
I may be on a garment-sewing kick like Tanesha from Crafty Garden Mom was talking about on her last podcast. Sun dresses, rompers, bloomers, and tunics are in my future!
