Meg is at it again. She always comes up with the most ingenious ideas, it’s really quite astounding. Today we’re featuring the balance board tutorial she’s put together for Celebrate the Boy, and seriously, how much fun is this? I can see this keeping my boy occupied for a very, very long time:
Meg is no stranger to this blog; you may remember her nifty belt tutorial from last year, and the fact that she went away to Hawaii earlier this year and left those of us in the North Country with

I just love boxer briefs for boys. So in addition to highlighting Bonnie’s sewing pattern this morning, I wanted to feature another way to make boxer briefs, upcycled from tshirts! Our second guest is Sabra from Sew a Straight Line and she’s got a tutorial for you on how to turn tshirts into boxer briefs.
Here’s Sabra:
Hello, Made-By-Rae readers and boy celebrators. I’m so excited to be a part of this awesome party of all things boy! I have three little boys of my…
Phew! I am a little late on the posting this morning. Last night we had another awesome Crafters Meetup, so I’m a little slow this morning. Need. more. COFFEE. (and even if I didn’t get my posts finished last night, I did get a little more work done on my Negroni shirt for Mr Rae, yaaaay! So I think there’s a good chance it will be finished in time to show you for CTB).
Today our focus is on….underwear! I don’t know about you, but I find it tricky to find underwear for boys that isn’t covered with licensed characters.…
I have made a ton of (OK, fine: three) knit shirts for E in the past year so I felt like I should take it up a notch for Celebrate the Boy and come up with something that wasn’t a dress shirt or a t-shirt or a hoodie. Seems like that’s pretty much what’s out there for boys (which I can totally get excited about) but that wasn’t what I was going for here; I wanted something that didn’t scream “casual” OR “dressy.” And I think I got it. Actually I don’t care, I just really love this:
Hi guys! I want to write about these pants but I’m also super double dog tired and want to go to bed (it’s Monday night; we heavily avail ourselves of the ol’ autoposter around here during CTB). So there’s no tutorial or anything but I will say a few things about how I made these nice little brown pants for E which have since become his most-worn item of clothing (yes really!).
Before I made the Dapper Dillingers I posted about last week, I wanted to make a test run before I cut

 Our guest today is Care of Obsessively Stitching, who is a Boy Tutorial Queen with two boys of her own and a blog full of thoughtful, creative ideas for boys (she’s also got plenty of non-boy stuff as well). Care joined us last year with an army bunker play tent tutorial as part of her Tent Week tutorial series. Today Care is sharing her series of tutorials to make a set of plush Angry Birds for the boy in your life, big or small.
