I have been doing some sewing for me but took a break from my project and made the little guy a new henley.
I used Ottobre 0106 Baby Basics, an individual pattern.
This is the softest fabric and sewed like a dream. It seems to be very popular and sells out quickly, but there are some other designs and colorways in this Jay-Cyn for Birch Organic Fabrics.
This is the best placket I have ever made, thanks to Singer Library Sewing for Children
What was the hardest part? Well, after sewing for 4 daughtes, having the placket go the other way for a boy!
One more thing, little guy's dad loves this fabric, he has family in Montana and loves the outdoors. I did call this moose fabric when it come in the mail, I was corrected and told "No, elk!" It is official, I now know the difference between elk and moose, at least on this printed fabric.
When I saw it I thought what cute deer fabric LOL. Guess that shows I'm a mother of girl's too and don't know the difference between deer or elk either.
ReplyDeleteUm, I didn't know it was elk either. Very cute shirt!
