It's All About Cars

Yesterday I was tidying up the sewing room and found this fabric by Alexander Henry.  Alexander is absolutely crazy about cars, trucks, trains and most especially tractors.  I asked him if he would like me to make him a shirt from the fabric.  He's so cute, he stokes the fabric and says, "nice, soft."   I thought it would be good for him to see the transformation of turning a piece of fabric into something wearable.  Good thing he isn't too concerned about my sewing abilities yet.  He helped me put the snaps on this morning and happily put the shirt on.  This photo shows that he needs a haircut, I'm just waiting until his hair recovers enough from Grandpa's buzzcut a few months ago--we will never do that again!

Very cute! How many color ways dod those cars come in? I made a quilt with the white, I have a charm of the green in my I SPY tack...

Jacob loves cars too (& motor cycles & school buses &...) But he has never had a hair cut.
