When I was "infanticipating" with my little Ms, I knew nothing of sewing, thus bought maternity clothes, albeit on clearance!
This time around, I'm trying my hand at some alterations & DIY
creations:)
I bought a knit maxi dress (non maternity clearance at
Ross) with plenty of stretch & the desired V neck for future nursing capacity...
...however, the neckline was way too low for me...
...so instead of having to wear a full length tank underneath (difficult for future nursing), I chopped a square of white knit to make a nursing/modesty panel...
...and it works like a charm!
I zigzag stitched at the top 2 corners to keep the panel in place, allowing the bottom to hang free & be maneuvered easily:)
TIP: Be sure to use a stretch needle when sewing with knits!
With the summer Texas heat beating down, I was looking for the least amount of layers needed for this combo & am thrilled with this DIY experiment!
On to the next!
