Baby clothes sewing patterns

I've just decided to have a go at making some baby clothes for DD, should be fun. Could anyone advise where I could get hold of some good sewing patterns? I've done a google search but just can't tell what would be best to pick up, could do with some sage advice from those with more experience Smile

I've picked up some good ones from pinterest you have to do some browsing and you need a printer, but kept MiL out of mischief. She's moved onto toddler patterns as DD has grown older. She also bought some simplicity patterns off eBay which she marked out onto baking paper to keep the patterns intact as DD gets older.

this pattern was my favourite she has made, so far. DD is very slender and it's great as she adjusts the length and width to suit.

I've decided the same. I haven't actually finished any of these yet, but these are the projects I've picked up. And I've brought a sewing machine. Please send me ideas back if you find more.... :-)
