The front of the shirt, back of the pants (She's wearing the pants backwards in classic 2 year old fashion)
And the back of the shirt/ front of pants,I guess it's more fun to see if you can find the pony when it's on the back instead of the front
Link to directions for making a peasant blouse : http://indietutes.blogspot.com/2007/07/peasant-blouse.html,
and here is a tutorial for the pants
1: use the bottom half of the old pants
2:take one leg and slide it inside the other - with right sides facing each other.
3: carefully fold a pair of the childs existing pants with one leg inside the other and line up the crotch seam, slide this over the pant bottoms, matching the seams.
4: using the existing pants as a guide, cut a crotch into the pants bottoms at the top (CUT 2" HIGHER THAN EXISTING PANTS FOR A WAISTBAND)(bottom seams should match with bottom seams of existing pants
5. sew the crotch seam up and turn pants to proper side
6. Fold top over 1/2" and then 1", stitch so there is a casing for elastic, leave a small hole.
7: Using a safety pin, thread elastic through casing (about 2" smaller than child waist
8: stitch elastic together so it lies flat, stitch small hole closed
9: Enjoy!
