I like the look of the long sleeve tunic best. Cute pattern.

I would do the long sleeved, and even though I've never branched out into anything but quilting cotton, I would like to try it in linen. Thank you for your awesome boy ideas! I love them all!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this pattern! I could make one for my one year old son and a girly one for my 2 yr old daughter. So many possibilites! I love the long sleeves, but the short sleeves would be great for summer. I can't decide! :) Thanks for the chance!!
ReplyDeleteI would make some sweet short sleeved ones for a couple of darling little girls in my life!

ReplyDeleteemilycmeyer at gmail dot com
Oh, how cute! I think I'd end up making a bunch of these for each kid and every season. I think long-sleeved would be my favorite, with a solid body and fun print details!
ReplyDeleteThanks!

Since we *MIGHT* actually have summer someday in the Pacific NW (it's 55 degrees and pouring rain right now) I would make some lovely short-sleeved ones for the kiddies. Sorainima (at) gmail (dot) com
ReplyDeleteand i was just about to buy one! =))
ReplyDeletei would do a solid color sheer fabric, with long sleeves, and solid color quilting cotton accents. simple and great for summer! clothing is the best sun screen, after all

Wow, wow, wow. I've been drooling over this pattern since you first started posting about it! Here we'd be making multiple versions: swim coverups in self-dyed jersey for the three year old and plain cotton ones with African prints and batiks for the baby.
ReplyDeleteI've got everything crossed now.

Short-sleeved for sure -- we've got hot weather in the South practically 9 months of the year!

ReplyDeleteyobethie(at)hotmail(dot)com
I love the Charlie pattern! I'd probably make as many variations as I could: long, short, half-sleeves, prints, solids, prints AND solids....It's adorable!Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteare you kidding?! i'd do one of everything. except knit; i'm afraid of knit. erinmalia at gmail. (oooh, my first word verification had my name in it. that MUST mean something, right?!)
ReplyDeleteI would make a couple short sleeve tunics first (one for son & one for daughter) & probably in knit since both pretty much insist on soft clothes. Love your whale print! I need to design some tractor fabric for my son. I think this pattern would easily become a staple in the kids' wardrobes. Alyssa_j_s (at) hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteThanks for the give-away. I would love to try a long sleeve linen one with a fun geometric print in a bright color.
ReplyDeleteLove this shirt, I would do a short sleeved one with a print, maybe a tattoo print to make it bad boy.
ReplyDeleteI have a stash of linen/tencel fabric that would be lovely. Short sleeved for the summer, long sleeved for the fall.
ReplyDeleteerin.riggio@gmail.com
I would do a white linen swim coverup, we spend a lot of time at the pool and beach!!!
ReplyDeleteKatie@iamnotageek.com
For the summer I would do a solid short sleeve one.
ReplyDeleteI would make a whole lot of them. Short sleeved in summer, long sleeved in winter. With fun prints, preferably in the new knits I just ordered. That would seem very comfortable to wear.
ReplyDeleteoontjesblog(at)gmail.com
light weight and breezy, but with long sleeves to keep off the sun!
ReplyDeleteI'd make a short and long sleeved one. And probably many of each!
ReplyDeleteHi Rae, i am a ardent follower of your blog, especially when you post toddler wear as I picturise most of the dresses on my kid too.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely go for a short sleeve one because that is suited for us in this part of the world. If I win it, I have already the fabric combination in mind! it would be indian print for the main body, and on the collar and sleeve I would go for a matching solid colour. All of these in cotton. This would give a perfect Indianised look.
Crazy print, swimsuit cover up :)

I love the short-sleeved version with a fun accent. The whales are adorable!

ReplyDeleteLong sleeve in a neutral linen with a cool contrasting print, something in turquoise, I'm thinking. Thanks!
ReplyDeletekmomisme (at) yahoo (dot) com
A 3/4 length made longer for a friend's daughter. She has been looking for a tunic style dress for her daughters and I think this would work wonderfully. All my boys are in their teens but our friends are missionaries and are always appreciative of any clothes made for their kids. (5, ages 8 and under)
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much for this opportunity!
I have been admiring this shirt. It is a cool shirt for the florida winters. For my son, I would make long sleeve in a two contrasting prints. I have a cotton print of robots in blue for the shirt and a cooridinating robot print for the neckline. Thank you for th giveaway and for designing for BOYS!

ReplyDeleteI would start with short sleeve (maybe knit if I felt daring) and then work my way to long sleeve this winter!
ReplyDeletesefarny(at)gmail(dot)com
Probably, I'd sew a knit shortsleeved top. My 8 weekold is cloth diapered, and I think showing his cute diapers off would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteAmber(at)wamber(dot)com
i would make it short-sleeved and would do green knit. they have so many shorts with green flecks and bits, that green seems to match all their summer clothes!
ReplyDeleteoh I love this tunic!!!!! I would have to make a million of them for my little boy...short sleeved definitely, cause duh, its 800 degrees in Georgia right now....probably with a fun, bright print cause that's what Mama's little boy loves <3
ReplyDeleteI think the short sleeve tunic is so cute in knit.
ReplyDeleteI'd make a crazy print (just the edges, though) short sleeve shirt. I *love* the look of these!
ReplyDeleteeidolons AT gmail DOT com
I would likely do a short sleeve in knit - it's almost summer here and my boys prefer knit fabrics. Solid with a simple print contrast.
ReplyDeletesmblake at gmail dot com
I think I would make it with long sleeves (as even in summer it's often a bit chilly in the UK!) and I have some lovely owls and zigzag print that would look great for around the neck and cuffs :-)
ReplyDeletejodie(at)tawn(dot)co(dot)uk
OH MY! I would sew so many for my two boys! Short sleeves in linen for the summer, short sleeves in fleece/wool for fall layers, long sleeve knit for winter...the list is endless!
ReplyDeleteleosmomma at live dot com
Long sleeved, linen with quilting cotton trim from my stash! Some Lizzy House ducks are calling to me!!!

Fantastic! Probably knit with robot trim for my youngest :)
ReplyDeletei would do long and short sleeve solid colors and definitely Lenin in light blue and white...maybe some charcoal grey. Thanks

ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway :)
meerigylling@gmail.com
I am in love with all of the versions you have made...I would start with a short sleeve knit one like your whale one since knits are so comfy for little man....then probably a short sleeve linen one...ooh, or chambray....and after I have a nice summer collection of short sleeve ones then I will start on long sleeves for fall...ooh, I hope I win but if I don't, think of all the time I will have NOT sewing these :) :) :)
ReplyDeletejones(dot)amanda(dot)m(at)gmail(dot)com
Definitely short sleeved. I'd love to make it in a soft solid knit with something fun and funky for the facings.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all of the boy ideas and the giveaway!

I'd make several short sleeved ones for my little man for summer!
ReplyDeleteFun! Fun! Fun! Thank you!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'd want to sew a short sleeved Charlie first, but I imagine my lil' guy would pick a crazy print one! ;)
Thanks again! Would LOVE to win this great pattern! So unique and stylish for boy which is soooo hard to find!
I would make long sleeve, lightweight tunics for my kids to wear camping- too keep the bugs off but stay cool. :) Probably something in a wildly girly print for my daughter, and orange or brown for my son.
ReplyDeletekatycorgi at yahoo dot com
I'm going to have a boy in a few months, but my kid sewing patterns are all girly! I'd love to make my little boy shirts from this, out of cute boy prints like you're always showing. Dinosaurs, perhaps?

ReplyDeleteI'd start with a short sleeved version for my adorable little cousin. I think I'd go with some cool linen for the main fabric and some lovely small scale print for the collar.

I think I'd try the short sleeved version. Probably a solid with a print on the neck and sleeves like the ones you've done. I like them so much.
ReplyDeletesparetimeblog at gmail dot com
I love the long-sleeve version with the linen and measuring tape accents. I would probably do something similar but maybe a different accent fabric. Perhaps some trucks or trains since it would be for my son.
ReplyDeleteshort sleeved and cRAZY
ReplyDeleteMy little FL boy would definitely need a beach cover-up in some lightweight fabric. I might have to make an exception to this being a "boy pattern" and make is older sister one, too, perhaps with a modified placket.
ReplyDeleteFirst I'd actually make a swim coverup caftan for my daughter like you did for Clementine (does that disqualify me? I'm being honest here!) but I'd definitely save it for when my now 6-month-old son is toddling around. I know I'd get lots of use out of it for my boy AND my girl!
ReplyDeleteI would make two one short-sleeve for now but i really love the long sleeve one so have to do that one for the fall. my boy is just a year. by the way I have loved your boy series!! sbm11685@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI would love to make one for each of my 3 boys!!
ReplyDeleteI would make a few in short sleeve for my son, since it's summer. :)
ReplyDeleteI've got this great dinosaur print I've been meaning to use.
I would love to make a Charlie Tunic for my son:)
ReplyDeleteWe are big Charlie & Lola fans in this house, so this would go down a treat here! I'd probably go for a long sleeved version (to stop the scratching of eczema!) in one of the many gorgeous boyish prints in my stash! Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI would love to make this pattern for my 1.5-yo in natural linen with a really wacky print facing.
ReplyDeleteashamanjababu(at)yahoo.com
I bought some cute knit fabric with little trucks that I have been afraid to use. I think I would finally use them for this! Love the whales, by the way!
ReplyDeleteI would probably make it with my printed fabric and solid accents in long sleeves!
ReplyDeleteThe whales are awesome!
I would try to give that tunic half long sleeves, down to the elbow maybe and use some of the great african fabrics I found at a fleamarket last weekend. My boys dad is from Uganda so I love seeing him wear some traditional style sometimes and this pattern is perfect for that!
ReplyDeletegeschea/at/yahoo.de

I absolutely love this pattern! I have some cornflower blue linen that would be amazing as the long sleeve version. I would also love to make the short sleeve version out of a subtle yellow knit with a fun contrasting print. My nephew would most certainly look adorable in both! I have been wanting to make him one for some time now...
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting this giveaway, your sewing ideas and patterns are fabulous! And your son and daughter are the perfect models for your creative projects. I truly admire what you do :)

I have a three-month old, and I'd like to make some clothes now for next winter. This would be perfect in a little girl print!
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern, too. I'm in the thick of boy wardrobe-building, so I think I'd probably make a short-sleeved version in a geometric cotton print. Either that or a wrinkly linen-y one. Yum.
ReplyDeletewould love this pattern for my guys (3 & 15 mos.)! Love your versions, too!
ReplyDeleteI would sew at least 1 of each type of Charlie tunic for my son and then experiment with the pattern for my daughter. And probably make several for my nephews. Basically, I would have Charlie tunics coming out my ears:) (I think I would have to make a Lightning McQueen patterned one for both of them as my kids are obsessed with Cars).
ReplyDeletealayna_adams5@yahoo.com
I have a 19 month old I think i would go with a long sleeve tunic with the some crazy boy fabric for the trim and a solid center. maybe make some shorts that match that could be fun. I hope i get to make it
ReplyDeletebrittney215@gmail.com
hmmm... solid color with a cool print on the neckline. I don't know about the sleeves (actually, I would probably make one of each if my first came out good!)
ReplyDeleteI have 2 daughters (and one is too big for this pattern) so it would also come out more on the girly side in terms of colors!
Thanks for the chance to win... I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

ReplyDeleteI love this pattern, I'd love to get a head start and make up some long sleeved ones probably using a stripe or dot print as the base with a solid contrast. My little one likes to trace patterns on his clothes when he's nervous and he's starting school this fall. kcarlson1152[at]hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI'd make at least 2. I would love to make a long one to make a qhim cover-up for my daughter, and a short-sleeved one for a chilled-out surfer look for my son!
ReplyDeleteI would love to make one for my daughter this summer in a gauzy linen. Its always a challenge to find long sleeve summer shirts to keep the sun out but let the breeze in!

I would most defintely start making some long sleeved ones for the winter (my kids are pretty well suited up with summer clothes already).

I have 4 boys (okay, so the 6 ft 14yo may be a little old for a Charlie) and I would love to sew them some long sleeved Charlies! Our summer seems to be a cold one this year. I think this pattern would even look great in a flannel for pj tops for some of my girls.

ReplyDeletercg2t at me dot com
Since our Spring seems to have disappeared here across the pond, I would probably make long-sleeved. Right now, I'm committed to stash-busting, so looking at my stash right now, I might just have to make the contrast with a bright snail print that I have. Not sure what the rest would be, I'm pretty bad about buying solids on a whim so I might have to break down and buy some for that. :) (like I mind)
ReplyDeleteReally?! Wow, how exciting! I love how this pattern works for both girls and boys. I think for us, the short sleeved pattern since we live in very hot and very sunny Florida!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I would love to win a pattern! Thanks for the chance, and all your great patterns, tutorials & inspiration! yzobela at hotmail dot com

ReplyDeleteetsyteachermom at gmail
I love this top! I would make a solid 3/4 sleeve tunic for my little girl with a super loud trim! And of course, bows to match....
ReplyDeleteLong sleeve, natural linen with hand embroidery along the hem line and neckline. Also another in blue, with a handpainted Greek border above the hemline, and one in green (I have 4 boys), olive if I could find it with a striped cotton for the contrast fabric. (Can you tell I have been wanting to make some?)And I would try a knit for each of them. I am not sure my oldest would like a tunic, so I would have to stop at 3. Now, I just need to cross my fingers long enough to win! Thank you so much for this giveaway Rae.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely make the short sleeved version and probably try it with the knit for summer!!

I love it, so cute! I would sew a short sleeved with a linen/cotton cute print a a long sleeved one for the fall. I love the t-shirt one you posted today!!
ReplyDeleteI adore this pattern! It is suitable for both boys and girls, depending on the fabric. Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI would love a copy of this pattern, a long sleeve would be great for our nz winter.
ReplyDeleteHooray for give-away! How generous :)
ReplyDeleteThis would be a sweet short sleeved linen hang-out "gown"-esq outfit for my sweet little girl and maybe one for her cousin too!
I love this pattern! I have so many young children in my life and would love to make some gifts! I think I would make short sleeves for the summer! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love long sleeved shirts with shorts...so probably a long sleeved light weight material for after evening swims in the lake...for a 2 and a 4 year old! Thank you, thank you!

I hope this is my lucky number!
ReplyDeleteI would make short sleeves at the moment, my boys are sorely in need of a summer wardrobe...all 3 of them! It would also be a great way to use up all those prints I have been hording! lol
ReplyDeleteOh how I love it all! If I won, I would sew a short sleeved tunic for my son this summer with a nautical print.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to make this with a linen and a funky print with dinos on it for my little dino boy. Who at 20 months runs around all day roaring and exclaiming "mommy, I dino!" His first sentence. :)

so glad I am catching up on reading my blogs -- with my glass of vino!! i would make this for a girl and use some essex linen with some new Loulouthi for the accent. i think this would look fantastic for a girl with the right fabric. actually if this is for my girl... i should find dark grey or black... not something whitish.... !! thanks for a chance at winning your pattern. i can't wait to try it! elizabethlehman@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteWOW! I'd love to do up some short sleeved Charlie's for my little guy in a few of the crazy prints I have laying in my 'for his clothes' pile.. (He loves Charlie and Lola, by the way)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!

I have two little girls but lots of friends with boys in need of some handmade clothes! I like the long sleeved version the best, but as it is currently 95+ with no sign of letting up until September, I would go with the short sleeve version first! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great pattern, not just for little boys, but it'll be perfect for little girls too! I think I like the short sleeved version the best, I'd make it out of solid coloured linen paired with a bright accent like you did! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteLove this pattern! I would make it short sleeve with a solid linen paired with a printed accent. So many possibilities!

This is such a cute pattern (and your whale fabric is great!). I think I'd use some knits and make some PJ tops for my little guy. We keep stretching out the necks of the tops to fit them over his noggin.
ReplyDeleteI will be taking my granddaughter to the pool every week, so if I won, I would make her a cute beach coverup!
ReplyDeleteI would love this Rae! I never sew for my boys except for pj pants and I think Jonah would really like this one! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI think I would sew a knit version - yours is super cute by the way - with a cute print for the facings. This is such an adorable pattern!

I think I would do the long sleeve version - perfect for layering up in our chilly winter at the moment!
ReplyDeleteI love the short sleeve knit version.
ReplyDeleteWith 3 boys, I need something suitable to make them for the summer time! I LOVE your whale top, and I want to copy it with specific prints for each of them! So cute!
ReplyDeleteI would make a whole bunch of tunics for my daughter, both long and short

I would sew many, but first I would make a long sleeved one from orange solid fabric with grey trim.
ReplyDeleteI love these tops! I would make them for all the grands, boys and girls. Thanks for the chance.
