Patterns for sewing "garments" for preemies
I have looked and looked for sewing patterns for micro-preemies
I did see a few garments that were priced more than I was willing to pay for them.
I did find one site - http://www.eymm.com/ - that had a "top" pattern - but i was unable to download it.
Our grand-niece had twin girls on May 8 - weighing in around 2 pounds each.
Any suggestions?

Not sure if there is anything there you can use.
Have you thought about doll clothes patterns?

Then there is https://preemiestore.com/ which is not patterns but items made for preemies.

Altho it might sound a little grim, check out the sites that sew bereavement clothing for babies that die too early. They have patterns for volunteers that sew clothing for all sizes down to dollar bill size babies. These incredible people provide a wonderful service to grieving families at one of the darkest times of their lives.

But actually asking the people that work in that NICU - never occurred to me. Thank you for the suggestion.
I was just thinking about giving the items to the mother.
