I got my donkey paper pieced pattern done. It just needed the embroidery work on it.
With summer around the corner, I thought I would make little Luc a short-sleeved shirt.
I had a piece of this lime green gingham and decided to try out the pattern. If it's fairly straightforward, I may be making more. I made lots of short-sleeved shirts for my own boys and it's too bad I gave most of them away. I think I only kept one and that's because I appliqued a ducky on the back.

Missed so many posts )o: Love your paper pieced donkey and what sweet fabric for the shirt!
ReplyDeleteI think that shirt will look good on little Luc. Like your donkey
ReplyDeleteThat donkey is so cute! And look at you go, sewing shirts...I don't know any children with three arms, so I stay away from making garments. I'm rubbish at it.
ReplyDeleteLuc is going to be the best dressed boy in Canada.
ReplyDeleteGingham is great. It reminds of the boy shirt and made and never finished. Definitely won't fit now! Great job!
ReplyDeleteWundervolle Quilts. Vielen Dank.

That donkey is awesome! And the shirt brings back memories - I have to admit that from time to time I dressed my kids in cottons chosen with an eye to what I needed for my quilts.....they survived, lol.
ReplyDeleteI love the donkey:) I love shirts on little boys. They always look so neat...at least for a little while.
ReplyDeleteThe gingham's a good choice for a little boy's shirt. He'll be handsome!
