Welcome to Joy2Sew’s Celebrate The Boy week of nothing but BOY posts! Woohoo! I’m so excited! I’ve definitely fluffed up Nathan’s summer wardrobe with some bold and fun prints, and have had a blast doing it! Rae and Dana have been a constant source of inspiration for me, and I’m so thankful that they started a yearly sewing series celebration of boy items! Haven’t checked it all out yet? Head over to Rae’s or Dana’s to see their CTB (celebrate the boy) highlights below,….or just check out the CTB flickr pool! Did I mention I have a photostream there of all my sewn items over the last few years??? Just easier to have it all categorized in the same place for me!

The pants are a bold nursery print from Ikea textiles, which I don’t think they carry at this time. I’ve used it a lot in the past to make N some baby items like a carrier cover, a bouncy seat cover, and my recent changing mat, but now it makes it’s bold debut as pants, perfectly lightweight for this summer!
