Retro Baby

I got my son a small doll from a flee market some time ago. We are starting to potty train him and I figured it might help to have a friend in the task. So, I found this cute little doll with a small potty and I thought it was perfect for him. Onni has been taking care of her very well. They sit on the potty together and then he tucks her in the bed and gives her kiss for goodnight. He calls her “Baby”. Totally adorable!

The doll was however without any clothes, so I made a small hoodie and wide hem trousers for her out of Onni’s old retro onesie. A cute little hat was easy to sew together from one leg of Onni’s used stockings. She also got a small dress with a heart appliqued in front. I got all excited making these tiny clothes. I think my son will get few more dolls to play with. ;)
