Tigger for Alex

My cousin Melanie's little boy Alex was born on Dillon's 5th birthday. For Alex's first birthday (9-18-04), I made him a fleece jacket and matching hat made from some Tigger fleece I found just in time for the occasion. Melanie has always been a Winnie the Pooh fanatic, with Tigger being her fave, so when I saw this fleece, I knew it needed to become something for her little man. Lucas is modeling them, because even though he's 11 months older than Alex, they are just about the same size.

This was the first non-invisible zipper I've ever gotten in perfectly on the first try!

Hood up, he didn't want to look at me for this one.

Back view. Luc's wearing a black pocket dipe a friend made for him, it has a bowl of noodles with chopsticks embroidered on the tush. The inside is microfleece with sushi all over it. :)

With the hat. The cuff is rolled up here b/c it's too tall for his head. I ripped out the cuff and shortened it after trying it on him to take these pics, but forgot to take a pic of it once it was fixed.
