Romper Sack

...
...
After rummaging through the boxes marked "Diane" in my parent's attic, I discovered some of my baby clothes that I had used to dress dolls. They were stained and the elastic around the legs were brittle, but they seemed too wonderful to put back in the box. The idea soon came to me to reclaim these rompers and sew new life into them as sacks for my daughter, who loves carrying around my bags. With very little tailoring, my old romper became a new place for treasures to be collected and for pretend play to flourish.
