Sewing-A Child's Sunsuit from 1953


This sunsuit in size 4 comes from Smart Sewing, Sixth Edition, 1953. Two pages of instructions are on my Flickr account.

And if you’re as handy with a hammer as you are with a sewing machine, check out Tipnut’s site for instructions for a 1950’s space-cadet clubhouse, ray gun or a flying saucer!

    Honestly, if I had a grandchild I'd be tempted to make half a dozen. Those and a t-shirt and the child would be set all summer.
