I am Boy-Child, hear me Roar

With the Skater Dress complete, I got a chance to quickly sew up another Dolman tee long-sleeve hack for the boy.  I'll be posting the pattern pieces and tute tomorrow!


And what better time to sew for my boy than Celebrate The Boy time by Made by Rae and MADE?

I've said it before, but it's a really good time for 'boy'-fabrics in the shop right now, and a lot to appeal to older boys.  As Jamie is rapidly approaching eight I have a lot less leeway than I used to with the things I make him.

My new friend Max calls this fabric 'Commie Lion' which is both funny and apt.

I know, I know... cool shirt / what a bad-ass fabric / my hasn't he grown.  But also: have you ever seen Jamie's hair this long?  It's dangerously close to mullet territory, saved only by the mutton chops balancing out the party at the back.  True Story: we're not sure if his hearing problems are coming back or it's the hair muffs.
