 Front with corsage, headband, and socks.
Back Yo yo Bottom along with headband and socks.

 The supplies you will need to make this  YoYo Bottom Onesie, Headband and corsage along with socks.
1. Tape measure.
2. Scissors.
3. 1/4"  Electric for headband.
4. Felt for the YoYo's to be sewn to.
5. thread.
6. Sewing needles.
7. Sew machine.


You will need to cut out as many  large 2" circles  as you need to make each yo yo puff to go across the bottom of your onesie.  I used 5 different fabric for each puff. Set these aside till we do the bottom of the onesie. 


  
 Now measure out the fabric your fabric  13" long and 3" wide for the headband.
 Fold the fabric for the headband right side to right side and sew down the side.
 Turn the band right side out with the seam down the middle and press. Next you will cut the electric 1 1/4" . Turn about a 1/4" of your fabric inside and insert your electric and stitch  in place. look at photo
.
Now cut 2 out a felt circles and place one behind and the other on top and stitch leaving  one side with a small opening for the electric to stretch. 

  
 Now cut out fabric strips for the pleated fans. for the bottom cut a strip that is 2 1/2 X 15 1/4" and tuck in the ends and fold each pleat and press as you go. For the headband cut 2 1/2" X 10".

As you press each pleat curve the folds as you go to get the fan shape.

Now  get you glue gun and have fun! glue all parts to the felt circle.
You will do a smaller circle for the corsage and  even smaller for the socks.
 Next cut out the felt for the bottom and start stitching all of your fun fans and yoyo's to it.
After you have stitched  all of them on lay the felt to the back of your onesie and stitch around the felt to hold it all in place. I also stitched down the middle.
