The YMCA recently opened a branch here in the boondocks of King George, and my daughter loves the pool. We’re there at least five, sometimes six times a week.
However, the Punkin is a skinny little thing, and only lasts about 20 minutes before she turns blue with cold. And the locker room is even colder than the pool. A cover-up is almost a necessity.
So when I realized she’d grown out of her old cover-up, I decided to make her a snuggly warm new one. Cost–$4 for the towel. Took a bit of time in labor, since all the blue binding is hand-stitched on, as is the ribbon decoration. It did have a cute little J up on the chest, but it fell off in the wash and I haven’t found it yet. Bummer.
