So this is actually the first Sew Geeky we ever did, but somehow it was deleted off my blog. There's no way that i could find of restoring it, which sucks so hard, so here it is rewritten! Enjoy the not epic odd-sized photos and vintage Eddie & Vin! (A throwback if you've seen this before!)

in the days before Eddie could even stand up omg

 I had the Sega Shirt in my stash for a really long time. I scored it from an epic thrift shop adventure and hoarded it for ages until the perfect moment. It was a simple resize from an adult's tee down to a Vin sized tee (cute story: Vin came up to me just earlier today with a maternity shirt of mine and said 'It's too bad you can't resize this for me'. Well I can and I will, son, but I'm more stoked that you just drop 'resize' into everyday speech and know that I have the capabilities of doing stuff like that for you!).
 

His pants are made from my boo Sarah's amazing/go-to-pants pattern Hosh Pants! I used this vintage navy fabric in my stash that has this cool raised squiggly pattern along it.


yeeehhh... that's the best photo I have of the back....






I had grand plans of making Vin some Toms, but the size pattern for him was like a boat on his foot. They really didn't turn out well at all. I do want to try this out again, but I might seriously change the sizes to custom-fit them to Vin's feet.


The hoodie was truly epic and a labour of love. It took me a few little muslins to get the hood pieces right, but I'm really really stoked with the outcome! I didn't use a pattern, just used a hoodie that fit him already as a guide. The Hood was made in several pieces, each little spike was sewn together like a little shark fin then sewn into the hood. The hood had several panels that the fin/spikes were sandwiched between.


It's edged in elastic, and is just big enough for a little boy to curl up into and go into super speedy Sonic mode (where he looks like he's a little ball!)


Although it is easy to lose your balance..



And to go with Sonic the Hedgehog is his pretty little friend Amy Rose!


 She looks like such a piglet oh my goodness.


Eddie's Amy Rose outfit consisted of a pink hoodie, a red Doli tank as a dress and some pink tights!


The hoodie was also drafted up from a hoodie that fit her well. I made little pink ears but I think they are too close together and too far forward. They look like little piglet ears! I also stitched a red band around the hood, like Amy Rose's headband. I was debating adding spikes to the hood, but I figured for the hoodie to actually be useful to Eddie it probably shouldn't be terribly annoying to the poor babe


Her tights were made using Made by Rae's tutorial, so easy to make. I make all Eddie's stockings this way now! I used pink ribbing fabric from my stash (everything I used was stash-busted, except for the main pink & blue fleece from the hoods. Those were bought from Lincraft)


Really wish the TOMS shoes would have worked out! Eddie feels the same way!
