I made a jumpsuit in 24 hours! Designing and sewing my own romper

Jumpsuit, romper, onesie, playsuit... whatever you want to call it I wanted one that suited my body shape (a rectangle with a stomach) and had decently size pockets. Since I couldn't find one commercially that ticked all the boxes and was not a couple hundred dollars, I decided to make one myself using some free fabric and two patterns - all from my stash.

The end result is something that I love and have already worn a number of time. I did however end up added a tie at the neck to secure the top from falling off my shoulders.

Sometimes, as cosplayers, it is good to take a step back and make something super practical... and maybe work with fabrics you don't normally reach for ;) And now I have learnt more about knit fabric.
