I made bubby these summer overalls last night at Dannii's house for our regular crafty catch up. I was planing on making Charlee a dress as well but Noah and his teeth decided to not cooperate. He was a bit cranky and wouldn't go back to sleep so i only managed to get these done. I used a vintage pattern and also some vintage seaside/sailor fabric from my stash. They fit really well, i think i might have to make a few more for him.
I was worried they would look a bit girly but they are not too bad. I think the next pair will be in a light weight cord or maybe a funky boy pattern cotton...will have to go and have a browse around spotlight one day next week.
That's all i have time for, i hear thunder building in the distance so i should probably shut the computer down.
they are ooba cute! Love your work! Maybe we should have a crafty catch up one time?

Gorgeous. I think my mother in law made a similar pair of overalls for my boys when we lived in PNG. They lived in them (with no tshirt underneath, just like Noah's). So cute, and definitely not girlie. xx
