Turtle Pants
May7
I finished something!
I found these half finished cord trousers in my sewing gear. I began them about a year ago, so I suspected they might be a bit small for my growing lad. Soooo, I added a cuff in japanese turtle fabric. And a little pocket I made up as I went along. I didn’t expect the cuffs to be folded up, but I overestimated his leg length… he was asleep at the time. Anyway, I’m glad I did, because they look cute and are going to fit him for yonks. My mum found the soft cord at an op shop, yay Mum!
And this? This is my cafe buddy. Chino for her + Latte for me = a happy morning.
aww cute pants! I do love making things that end up fitting forever - got to get your blood sweat and tears worth out of homemade things
no comment on cafe-ing with your cute daughter because that just brings out the total green eyed monster in this mother of two sons lol
I LOVE those pants, they look unreal
Those pants are sweet Claire! I love the pocket and cuffs, very cool indeed!
Nice save on the pants. If you hadn’t said anything, no one would be the wiser that you hadn’t planned the cuffs and pockets all along.
