My Little Turkey

I stumbled upon a tutorial for a super-cute turkey shirt recently.  The example shirt was full of pinks (surprise, surprise) but the blog author assured the shirt would be cute in boy colors, too.  I agreed, and decided I wanted to make one for Tyler.
So I did!

I bought the onesie and matching pants at Wal-mart.  The turkey's body is corduroy and the feathers are all regular cotton from my scrap box.


The weather has been extremely mild this week, so it's worked out great to have a short-sleeved shirt.  And, we're getting all the wear out of it we can before it turns all brr and chilly on Thanksgiving day.


This shirt is also cute worn with corduroy pants, and is just right for emptying Mama's kitchen cabinets and stealing donuts.






Little turkey, indeed!

Oh my goodness he is SO adorable with his little mouth full of doughnut there! LOL! What a cute little stinker! :)

That last picture is so funny. I love to see someone their food. As someone who likes to quilt, that turkey idea would be cute to shrink down to put on 4x4 patches and make a Thanksgiving quilted throw.
