This one is the Gym Class Outfit. It was designed by Doll Tag Clothing, and is sold by Pixie Faire.
Every Friday, Pixie Faire offers a free pattern for downloading on that day only, and this was last Friday's.
To be honest, I have a huge backlog of patterns to sew. But I had two T-shirts I was saving to cut up and sew, and this called for two kinds of knit fabric, so it was perfect!
To be honest, I struggle a bit with knits. I find that it is easier to sew knits that come from actual T-shirts instead of knits bought from the fabric store.
Also, in this case I used the finished bottom of the T-shirt, so I didn't have to finish the bottom of the fabric off myself.
This picture shows the pieces I cut out for the pants.
Here is the shirt, partially assembled.
The pattern was easy and quick, and very satisfying.
I made one mistake on the back of the pants and had to re-do, but that was totally my own error. The front of the pants were actually more complicated, and I did those without a hitch.
The finished product really looks great, and like something a real human girl would wear to the gym.
I took this picture to show the cute pink V on the front of the pants. I love this little detail- it really adds something to the outfit.
I actually didn't vote for this pattern in Freebie Friday, but now I am smitten!
