creative anchorage

After my niece was acquainted with the felt dresses (made using this tutorial), she asked for some boy clothes.  The dresses came easy to me, but I’m not too familiar with menswear.  Before googling I could really only think of t-shirts and jeans for boy clothes.  And, well, derp.  There’s suits and tuxedos, jackets, vests, and I even made a pair of boxers.

The figure for the girl was simple, print out and cut, but having to draw my own figure was a bit hard.  Boys don’t have curves so I really didn’t know how to draw it without him looking like a stringy spaghetti.  It came out alright, but was obviously missing something.  When my niece saw it, she promptly asked, “Where’s his weenie?”  Such a prominent thing to miss…silly me! 

Here’s a close up with some of my favorite felt dresses.
