As I've mentioned before, our older kids are adopted. Boy has a brother who just had a birthday, and we're told he loves airplanes, so I whipped this outfit up for him.
It was super easy, and I experimented with using contrasting instead of matching thread. I think its worked well. The appliques are made out of scraps from old T-shirts.
I thought about having Boy model it for us, but then he's probably never want to give it up...so instead you've got the sofa modelling it.
Here's the pattern if you're interested in making your own. The technique is pretty much the same as the double dino applique pattern here.
