#107 Pattern of the Week

The pattern of the week is #104! This little boy's bubble pattern includes sizes 3 - 24 months. A one piece bubble with a two piece look, the bubble can be made with a square collar, pointed collar, or a simple neckband. This bubble, was featured in Sew Beautiful Magazine issue #104, and was made from a pale turquoise Imperial Broadcloth.


Embellished with Bullion stitched bumble bees down the center front of the shirt, this bubble appeared in Sew Beautiful Magazine issue #94.

Kathy Barnard, editor of Sew Beautiful Magazine, made this elegant version for her son Aiden. Featured in issue #106, Kathy added her original embroidery design to the front of the shirt.

This white linen version, was made by Carol Harris for Creative Needle Magazine 2001. Carol stitched original Bullion sea horses down the front of the shirt.


Made from blue and white pima cotton, I made this bubble from scraps left over from other projects. The square collar is perfect for Shadow Embroidery, and mock suspenders give the bubble a very boyish look.

The simple sailboat embroidery design is included in the pattern.

  1. Such a versatile pattern! It also proves a boy can wear heirloom, and still look like a little boy!

  2. I LOVE this pattern! I used it to make my (now 3 year old) son's Christening outfit, and buttoned on a beautiful overskirt :o)

    I need to make some summer outfits for the baby, well, okay, he's a toddler now. He so needs something sweet for church!
