This sweet cotton gingham fabric was a remnant I snagged at Joann Fabrics last time I was there – I cannot resist that section! It ended up being just a little more than I needed to sew a new summer top for Miles.
I used this pattern from Etsy [affiliate link] and was not a huge fan of the shoulder snaps at first, but they're growing on me, I have to admit :) This is a similar snap fastener kit to what I used [affiliate link].
Pattern alterations: I decided to make only one pocket instead of two and move it up to the chest, and added a little embroidered sun peeking out. The pattern itself was clear, simple, and easy to follow.
Miles is a tall kid for his age so I made the 6Y size, and have no idea if it fits yet as naturally he refuses to try it on, ha!
