Sewing In No Mans Land: Paging Dr. Sawyer, A bunny has a boo boo {Little Lab Coat Tutorial}

Sawyer genuinely thinks I can sew anything. He will come home from school and ask me to make him the most elaborate costumes. Sometimes I deliver and sometimes, well a kid has to dream right? He came home from his friend Katie's house the other day and told me he wanted a "white jacket with a heart with a mountain on it (like this bump-bump)" so he could be a doctor. I asked him what kind of doctor he wanted to be and he told me "an aminal doctor". I figured this was one I could deliver on and boy am I glad I did! I started out with a mens white v-neck undershirt. I laid it flat on the table and cut right up the middle to the center of the "V" on the front. This made the lab coat (In the end I hemmed both sides, but that is optional). Then I gathered some felt. I cut out a heart (the way you did as a child, folding it in half and cutting on the fold) and then free handed the "Bump-Bump", which was actually hard and doesn't look all that stellar.

Then I made two white felt pockets and filled them with "aminal doctor" items. On one side we have treats for his pets

I adhere strictly to the "rule of 3" so I actually had to call the hubster to get an idea for a third item, fish food was all we could come up with HA! In the other pocket we have more serious doctor items:

You can't see it all that well but that is a thermometer in the middle, the white on white probably wasn't the best idea but maybe this is a better angle

the finished product looked like this:

I thought about putting his name but then thought Finn and Evie might end up using it, but turns out Finn wants one BAD!!! So I will probably be making another! Sawyer LOVED it, which is an understatement.
