Yeah, his birthday's not until Tuesday, but as today is my Dad's bday, we celebrated both of them with family today. I've spent this past week working on these things for him, and was finally finished at about 2am today.
Skully curved raglan from Ottobre 1/03 - I tried this pattern to see how I'd like the shape of it compared to the 2/05, and I've got to say I'll be using the 2/05 after this. I really do not like the high neck shaping here. He loves it, and I never buy skull stuff, so it's extra special. I'd intended to make him black twill cargo pants to go with this, but ran out of time and steam.
French terry hoodie, from a late '06 Ottobre, made with many mods, and I'm wishing I'd lined it, as it's not very soft inside, and not as thick and warm as our other hoodies. Dillon wears a 134, but this pattern only goes up to a 128. I was so glad that my upsizing worked out well, and although the sleeves are about an inch too long, he's much like his mama and loves long sleeves. The dragons and kanjis are flocked/velvet iron-ons that he found at JA over the summer.
A #9 shirt for Dillon, he'll be 9 as of 8:55am the day after tomorrow. KS raglan pattern, and I drew the 9 freehand myself. I've been wanting to combine these 2 blues in a raglan for a while.
And my favorite, the GameBoy bag. My parents gave Dillon a GB Advance for his birthday. He's had a GB color since Christmas (my 17y/o cousin handed his down, along with alllllll the games and accessories he'd had), but had been dying for the GBA, so they got it for him, and I finally made the bag he's wanted. Gray twill, dragon iron-on, dragon cotton inner that's cured in my stash for as long as I can remember, lots of inside pockets that were hard to get pics of, and he's just tickled with it! He was actually more excited about the bag than the GameBoy!
