Vanessa has to wear ceil blue uniforms to work. It is not possible to buy maternity nursing uniforms here. I found the right shade of blue fabric in Hancock Fabrics. I bought the entire length left on the bolt. It will be enough to make a pair of pants and 2 shirts if not more. I will layout the entire length to save yardage. It will be nice to get a third shirt or second pair of pants out of the yardage I bought. I will have to renovate the 2 uniforms she already has. I will use SewChics instructions to add a maternity panel to the pants.
Edit- I was able to make 3 shirts and 2 pairs of pants out of the yardage purchased. I used my embriodery features on my new machine to put different motifs on her uniform pockets. One set has V monograms, one set has a stylized flower, and the other set has "It's a boy!" on one pocket and an airplane with a loop-de-loop trail on the other. I used thread that was almost an exact match to the color of the uniforms to do the embriodery.
