perfect beach outfit for Travis

I made a few things for Travis last week with my free patterns, and I'm totally in love with this outfit.

It is the Charlie Tunic from Made By Rae and Boys Cargo Shorts pattern from Little Lizard King. 

The shirt is made in a super light "linen-look" from JoAnn fabrics with seersucker at the placket.  This is great for keeping Travis covered at the beach, his skin is so fair!  The fabric is really thin and cool.

The cargo shorts are made from striped seersucker, a classic for stylish little fellas.

Both patterns were a breeze to whip up, the perfect relaxing summer night project.   

I finished it! My entry for Spring Top Week 2010

whoa, I just made it. The flickr pool closes on friday!

I made this top in navy blue because I was going for a basic top which would mix well into my spring/summer wardrobe. Then I decided it was a little too plain and jazzed it up with a freezer paper stencil in light blue.

Here I am freezing to death trying to get a decently lit picture! Wow is it cold in NH today.

Here is the back of the top. (with a few raindrops)

I used this pattern, New Look 6713, which I recently purchased for 25 cents!! Considering the incredible amount I spend on supplies and craft books, I'm pretty proud of that!

This pattern was easy to make, I would make it again in another color.

I finally get one of these awesome buttons! Thanks to Rae for the inspiration!
