One of several major hits to come out of the Gus Kahn-Walter Donaldson show, “Whoopee!”–Eddie Cantor originated the stage role and reprised it for the early talking picture (see Voglesque89’s channel for great clips). MAKIN’ WHOOPEE! Ev’ry time I hear that march from Lohengrin, I am always on the outside looking in, Maybe that is why I see the funny side When I see a fallen brother take a bride. Weddings make a lot of people sad. But if you’re not the groom it’s not so bad… Another bride, Another June, Another sunny Honeymoon, Another season, Another reason For Makin’ Whoopee. A lot of shoes A lot of rice The groom is nervous He answers twice It’s really killin’ That he’s so willin’ to make whoopee! Picture a little love-nest, Down where the roses cling, Picture the same sweet lovenest, Think what a year can bring. He’s washing dishes And baby clothes He’s so ambitious He even sews But don’t forget, folks That’s what you get, folks, for Makin’ Whoopee! Another year Or maybe less What’s this I hear? Well, can’t you guess? She feels neglected And he’s suspected Of Makin’ Whoopee! She sits alone ‘Most every night He doesn’t ‘phone Or even write, He says he’s “busy” But she says “is he?” He’s Makin’ Whoopee! He doesn’t make much money Five thousand dollars, per Some judge, who thinks he’s funny Says, “You pay six to her”. He says: “Now judge, suppose I fail?” The judge says, “Budge, right into jail! You’d better keep her, You’ll find it’s cheaper Than Makin’ Whoopee!!”

Does anyone have any sewing patterns for baby boys?? Or ideas of types of clothing other than researching the web?? I know I can use his current clothing to create patterns but, I want something unique. Its so hard because he is a boy.
I need sewing patterns /outlines of different pieces of clothing I want to make him anything! Clothes that are very light for this hot summer. Sizes 6-9 months Bloomers, light shorts and sleveless tops/one pieces you know.

When my boys were babies there was almost nothing for boys and I thought that I wouldn’t be able to make things for my guys, until I realized that there’s little difference between baby girl clothes and baby boy clothes other than the color of fabrics and the addition of lace. The basic shapes and pattern pieces used to make clothes for babies is the same for girls and boys, all you need to do is choose "boy colors" and fabrics and leave of the lace trims, ruffles and cute bunny appliques. For boy themed appliques you can trace pictures from coloring books, that’s what i did. Or not bother as appliques are needlessly time-consuming and let’s face it, baby doesn’t care about trucks on his sleeper.

Simplicity has a wide range of baby patterns: http://www.simplicity.com/c-156-babies.aspx?pagesize=99999999 For example this simplicity pattern: http://www.simplicity.com/p-4478-babies-romper-and-jumper.aspx if you ignore the dress, the romper and the onsies are suitable for either boys or girls. Again, with this set:http://www.simplicity.com/p-1815-babies-separates.aspx forget the dress, eliminate the ruffles and use twill fabrics in blues, browns and greys and you have some nice boy’s creeper/rompers in short and long pant versions.

Kwik Sew has an even better array of baby patterns: http://www.kwiksew.com/catalog/cat_thumbs.cfm?End=25&Start=1&Cat=Children&Level=Babies&QL=Babies that are easily adapted for boys and several that are designed for boys specifically Kwik-Sew also has a fabulous "Sewing for Baby" pattern book that’s filled with easy to make patterns for clothes suitable for either boys or girls. The patterns and instructions are all included in one book and you can make lots of nice pants, tops, rompers etc: http://www.kwiksew.com/catalog/Book_Baby.cfm?Cat=Book_Baby

If you want some free patterns for the web there are many to choose from. Some free patterns are worth exactly what you pay for them, while others are better. Free patterns usually are for blankets, booties and other easy projects but there are some clothing patterns. Here’s some places with lists of patterns:

That should get you started!

Half done!! I can’t believe it has gone by that fast, holy! Hubby and I have done a lot of shopping now that we know the gender and the ball has gotten on a roll. All my blood tests & ultrasound results came back perfect! And hubby felt baby move for the first time last night and I was sooooooo happy about that, because I have been wanting and hoping he would feel her move soon.
