Recently I bought a bunch of plain onesies, with the goal of making a series of "shabbat shalom" onesies for new babies. I was trying to improve upon the early attempts I made for Jonah, which were a tad stiff and placed too high on the shirt, causing the decoration to bunch under the chin unattractively. For my first redo, I sewed four strips of fabric around the printed message, trimmed the whole thing to an oval shape, applied lightweight Steam-a-seam, and then stitched around the raw edge to finish it. Using only one layer of lightweight adhesive made a big difference. This version is going out to Arielle (Wasser) Gish, hopefully before she is too big to wear it!
