I never need to buy anything ever again. Never. Well, except maybe food.

(he is leaning against the pillow because otherwise you would have to see the glitter-covered advent calendar pop-up house that was sitting right behind him. Why it hasn't gone away yet I'm not entirely sure-- well, ok, it's because that sort of thing happens around here, and admittedly I have my own things that should have been put away/dealt with months ago...)




And yes, he has got an armadillo in his pocket.

Also, Target is evil... they have these shoes (which I totally don't need for any reason) up to a boy's size 2 in the "local" store, and not even that online. While all the boring sneakers go up to a 6, and I only need a 5. Admittedly, I was looking in the boy's aisle on the off chance they'd have saddle shoes (ha) which I also don't need, but still...

strangely enough, it's pretty much from your vest pattern. I combined it down to being only 4 pieces, (front+front side+a bit of skirt to lenthen it, and the same in the back) and then had to shrink it because the soom torso is smaller around. The sides are sewn to where the original top pieces end and then hemmed, and I hemmed the top instead of adding the collar. And there was still enough overlap for the front. The only thing I added were the pockets, which were just rectangles...

But admittedly, this is a bit more complicated that I realized when I started typing it out. I can certainly bring the pattern out the next time I see you; you'll just have to make it a little bigger to fit your boys. I'm also working on version 2, which has a more modern v-shaped neck; we'll see how that goes.

ok.

so when are we having a craft/doll day? :)

Um... I don't know. But I don't seem to be doing anything next weekend, having opted out of the MD sheep and wool festival. Theoretically I could even try hosting another craft day and see if I could get more people to come.
