Infant vs. Girls Sizes

[RhondaH]

I have a granddaughter that I will begin sewing period clothing for right away. She will be nearly two when the events begin this spring. She wears 18m-24m-2T clothing in the current time period. She will be completely potty trained by the time we attend events. My question is: Do I buy infant sized patterns or girls?

Rhonda, it's really a tosser--she's most likely going to be fine in the infant sizes for the year, but if you wanted to play WAY ahead and do the girl's sizes instead, I can help you with any "miniaturization" you may need to shrink down a base for this year.

Thanks!  I think I will do exactly that.  I was looking at the  patterns and trying to decide which to purchase!

Glad to help.   The patterns are designed to be customized, so a lot is based on her actual measurements, and is not difficult to change.
