The Huxley Bodysuit is a timeless PDF sewing pattern designed to create the perfect everyday basic for babies and toddlers. Featuring a classic envelope neckline, Huxley makes dressing and undressing quick and easy while providing a comfortable fit for little ones on the move.
Huxley includes three sleeve lengths: short, half, and long sleeves, allowing you to create bodysuits for every season. Choose between a tailored fit, a straight fit, or a special cloth-diaper-friendly version, making Huxley suitable for every little one. Keep it simple for an essential wardrobe staple or combine colors and prints to create a unique handmade look.
Customize the neckline and leg openings with your choice of binding, ribbing bands, or bands in the main fabric. For the sleeves, you can choose between a binding finish or comfortable cuffs, depending on the style you wish to create.
The Huxley Bodysuit is a unisex pattern with endless possibilities for personalization. Whether you’re sewing practical everyday basics, playful colorblocked designs, or coordinating handmade outfits, Huxley is the perfect foundation. A true wardrobe essential, this bodysuit will keep your baby or toddler comfortable and stylish throughout the year.
Huxley is suitable for cloth diapers
Using cloth diapers can make it difficult to find a bodysuit that fits comfortably over the extra bulk. Every cloth diaper system is different, and every baby has a unique shape. While it is always possible to adjust a pattern to fit your preferred cloth diaper system, we know this can be time-consuming.
To make things easier, Huxley includes a dedicated cloth-diaper version. This version provides additional room where needed, allowing cloth-diaper users to achieve a comfortable fit without having to grade between multiple sizes.
Skill Level for the Huxley Bodysuit

Suggested material for the Huxley Bodysuit
To create a Huxley Bodysuit, we suggest using medium-weight knit fabrics with at least 40% stretch, such as cotton lycra or jersey. These fabrics provide the right balance of comfort, recovery, and durability for an everyday bodysuit.
You can also use lighter-weight knit fabrics, but keep in mind that the fit may become slightly roomier if the fabric has more stretch than recommended.
For the binding or bands, you can choose to use either ribbing or the main fabric. Ribbing provides excellent recovery and can make attaching bindings easier, while using the main fabric creates a cohesive look. Depending on the stretch and recovery of your chosen fabric, small adjustments may be needed to achieve the perfect finish.
