For the Boys blog hop with a giveaway. . .

Today I'm participating in the For the Boys blog hop over at Sew We Quilt . . .

I've dedicated my sewing time to my little guy all this past week and made him a Classic Oxford short sleeve shirt, a bathrobe, and a backpack with matching lunchbag. You can check back on my past posts if you'd like to see more pictures or info about any of them.


And today I have the long-sleeve version of the Classic Oxford shirt (pattern from Peekaboo Patterns) and some matching ties to go with it (tie tutorial found here).


Seriously, is there anything cuter than a little man all dressed up?!


Peekaboo Patterns is offering a giveaway to one of my readers - use the rafflecopter below to win three patterns of your choice from their shop (over a hundred patterns to choose from!).


And for you chance to win a fat quarter stack from the blog hop host, just leave a comment below.  And to increase your chances, visit the other blogs on the hop today:
