If You Give a Cat a Cupcake for United through Reading

Posted on May 25, 2009 by Bonnie

This Size 3T Set is for the United Through Reading Charity Auction that starts today at Kukae & Mimi. This is my second year participating, and I enjoy it so much! Each participant chooses a children’s book and then she works her donation around the book. My selection this year is If You Give a Cat a Cupcake. Proceeds and books go to the United through Reading program which gives deployed military members a great way stay connected with their children at home.

The top in this set is a slightly modified version of my Emmy pattern. I curved the bodice and pushed the gathers to the middle, and I made the sleeves a little wider and the armband a little narrower. The skort is the size 3T bloomers from the AJ Bottoms pattern with a skirt attached. (I love the bloomers under the skirt!) The purse is a Mini Sammi Grace bag, modified to make it toddler-size. (I took about 2 inches off of the pattern each way and made the strap 3 inches shorter.)
