I’m not sure how many times last week he asked me if I was done with his clothes…but it was many. Many, MANY.
Upon further review of his closet last week I discovered that he had way too many clothes as it was, so I don’t feel like I need to make him a ton of things. They both have a lot of clothes. To be honest, I really haven’t bought them much RTW clothes from the store in a while. Except for jeans…I don’t really like to make jeans. A lot of the shirts in his closet were 4T – both short and long-sleeved. If we were going for the white-trash-show-the-belly-look, then I guess it would be okay. 😉 I purged a bunch of clothes that will soon be going to one of my friends that has a little boy younger than mine. There were shirts he NEVER WORE this past winter. I should feel good that he wore the fleece outfits I made him whenever they were clean, so I will be making him more comfy clothes for this winter.
Without further ado, here is a fun in sun summertime outfit for our little guy. He was very excited about his new clothes. Trying to be creative with boy clothes is not easy…but I tried. 🙂 I have a bunch more cut and ready to rock n’ roll on the sewing machine.
I also made him these flannel lounging pants. They were much adored, as well. 🙂 They are super easy to whip up a pair in 30 minutes or less. The weather was pretty chilly this weekend, so they were needed!
Hope everyone else had some time to get crafty this weekend. 🙂
Ohh what a great outfit!!!
Adam would LOVE those pants. He owns many flannel pants! 🙂
AHH, so cute! That is one of the cutest boy outfits ever. And my girls could also live in flannel pants even in hot weather. Don’t know how. I’m amazed that you say you can get them done in 30 min.
Love them both!!! Trying to be creative?? Oh man! You ARE SO creative, my friend! So fun and so boy! Just awesome!
Hugs.. Amy
What a super cool outfit. You can tell he is thrilled to have a rockin’ outfit. I have not even tried making anything for Miller. He doesn’t seem to care yet.
How COOL to have a boy that excited about new clothes! Sounds like he’s more appreciative than Anya. Of course, who wouldn’t be excited abut cool duds like that?!
Ahh – no craftiness except on the part of Mr. Daddy attempting to blemish my reputation on my own blog 🙂
I can see why he much adored those. Ya know… my kiddo is in 3T in case Kai outgrows those clothes soon, JK. He looks utterly thrilled with those outfits – and you totally deserve those smiles… they are awesome!
I love the funkiness the pockets add to the first set – too perfect!
Love the Elmo jammies and the Cars outfit is totally rockin’! Great work “whipping” these up! ;o)
ah, finally Kai gets his share of the sewing goodness bounty from Mama! sounds like he is very appreciative, too.
those lounge pants…now those I could use a pair of!
Wow, I can’t believe it’s flannel jammie weather up there still! Very cute!
Well that looks like one happy boy in his new gear. Very spiffy 🙂
You are sooo good!!! I wish I could sew!
Oh my…that grin on Kai’s face in that second shot is priceless!!!
And your talent never ceases to amaze me. My guy would wear both of those!
He looks stoked with his new clothes !!! Well done mommy !!
I think you did an AWESOME job of being creative with boys’ clothes! 😀
