Coming out of lurkdom- sewing for boys HELP!
I'm a lurker rather than a poster typically.
I often make things for my little girl (she is 7) but would really love to find something to make for my son (16 months). I always find a ton of great things to make for her but struggle to find cute boy things to make.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Have fun!
Welcome! I sew tons of things for my son- mostly tees and hoodies these days because those get the biggest smiles.
Lilblueboo is having a 25% off sale on her patterns tomorrow morning for a few hours- you can find the details on her blog. Her recycled tee hoodie pattern is GREAT for boys (and girls!)- I've used it tons and tons of times.
Patterns by Figgy have a book coming out soon that looks fun. I made a backpack for my son last year- that was fun! I'm thinking about making another this year. He absolutely LOVES the pillowcase I made for him on a whim a year ago- I should really make another, such quick and easy projects. Playmats are so fun- there are lots of great examples out there, but, this one (you'll recognize if you've been lurking a loooong time!) is definitely one of my favorites ever.
