It has been nearly 1 month to the day that I have had my sewing machine packed away. I think we needed a break from each other!
Keeping to "make the most with what you've got", I experimented making my own pattern, found some fleece scraps of material that I had in my magic cupboard, found a purple zipper(not really long enough, but did the job) and some grey ribbing and made this! Didn't need to buy an extra thing. Not sure if I would put my little boy in this in public, but it's perfect for home. The next one I will make will be with nice co-ordinating colours etc.. Just need to get the pattern right first.
Try making one yourself!
Very basic instructions... really just to show you that YOU can give it a go too.
You could add snap clips over the shoulders or bottom to open, zipper on the side, add arms, extra length etc..
