This Wedding DIY is a little different as it’s all about the fun and not the decor. This DIY guess who game is made up with photos of your own guest list. You will need a little time to hunt their photos down but thanks to Facebook that is a lot easier than it used to be. I don’t think I would have the patience to crop everyone’s head on to white background. The full tutorial can be found here.
This week in our Etsy Spotlight Series, we’re loving the timeless charm of the Thomas Shirt Sewing Pattern for boys. This versatile button-up pattern is perfect for every occasion—from backyard playdates to weddings and special celebrations.
We think this pattern really shines when paired with fun, bold prints—think quirky florals, vintage cars, tropical vibes, or even festive Christmas fabrics! It’s a fantastic way to let your fabric stash shine while creating something practical and adorable.
This pattern is a must-have for any sewing parent or grandparent. The design is polished enough for formal wear (wedding shirt, anyone?) but still comfy and easygoing for everyday use.
Tip: Try sewing it up in linen or lightweight cotton for summer, or use flannel for a cozy winter version.
Whether you’re sewing for your own kids or making gifts, the Thomas Shirt sewing pattern is a classic that’ll be on repeat.
