Last minute request...simplicity 3575

My big boy turned 8 yesterday..............Yeah, I find it very difficult to believe, they grow up so fast............

Have you ever had one of those last minute request?......He came to me on Thursday morning and said, mom I would like you to make me a bath robe for my birthday.... and I asked... tomorrow's birthday or next year's birthday? .....so that was the end of our Thursday morning discussion before school and work............
After work, I branched  off at Fabricland , looked through, but couldn't find any green flannel fabric... (Green being his fav. color). So went to Wal-Mart as usual and found this lovely soft flannel...... ..... Here is what I made after he went to bed ... I used simplicity 3575, and it took me about 3 hours from start to finish.....

It was a big surprise for him when he woke up in the morning with his gifts all wrapped up beside his bed..... So glad I was able to do this..... you should have seen the look on his face.......and I got one of those hugs and the ..." You are the best mom in the world" thing...lol.


Here is the birthday boy showing off his new bathrobe...


You all have a lovely weekend
Enjoy........
