So the rule around this house is “necessity is the mother of invention” and this little number is no exception. I can barely keep pj’s on my son let alone a bathrobe and with the weather finally turning colder something had to be done. My mother had made a caftan for my father several years ago and that was my inspiration for Aidan’s. I had this fleece laying around (my sister had bought him 1/2 a yard while we were at Joanns one day), so I layed out the measurements and started sewing away. It was all done in less than 30 minutes! What a cool project and a VERY forgiving fabric. I am thinking about making one for each of us, maybe adding sleeves next time! (side note, the floor is clean it is just stained lol!)
