...the tool man

A new little outfit for Baden.  I was a little worried that they looked too much like pj's, so next time I make him shorts I will put on a pocket.  I did do a double stitched seam on the sides and gave him a fake fly. 

The shirt has a machine outlined hammer (a clip art  that I changed slightly) and followed this great tutorial from Clutterpunks blog. (still to get a clear photo of it - a little hard on a moving model)
Have you been following along with the Celebrate the Boy month at Made and Made by Rae?
I have enjoyed seeing lots of the ideas and have an extra long tutorial list now and over flowing ideas.  I recently went to the Matilda's Markets here and was a little disappointed with the lack of boys things available.  I would love to say that I would like to have a stall there and concerntrate on all things boy, although we all know that girls things are oh so cute and yoyo's area quick fix and bring in the $.  I might start small.  There is a new congo cart that has just opened and the sellers are exclusive regular Crafty Mama forum members (of which I am) So keep your eyes open for more info on that in the coming weeks.

The list of Tutorial that I would like to try:
Newboy Cap pattern and tutorial - uses an old mens suit
Dino Mitts - so cute - would make a great gift for a little man or even as a puppet
Car Caddy - this would be great in my bag for Church, Mr B is still 12months off of going to Sunday School

Wow - that is a long list - will see how I go.
