WOW! ingrid's 'easy pants'!


I just whipped up these pants in literally half an hour, including handcutting the flower (from felt) and sewing it on!

i am soooo far behind on my baby gifts for new babies that some of them are about to turn one *blush* and i simply can't afford to buy them all. so i am using my creative talents (and mum's fabric stash hehe) to create some gifts for the mums and kids. i have choc chip cookies all packaged up ready to send, so i need to get 4 pairs of these made today to be sent this afternoon (yikes!)

i used a picot stretch fabric, and ingrid's pattern which consists of two pieces, one for each leg. sooo simple.

when i get to the boy's pants they might be a little more complicated though as i'll have to straighten the legs a bit i think, and i might design a little pocket to go on the side of each leg (what's the name of that style of pants? i've totally gone blank LOL)

oh, so now that i'm expecting blogger to rotate the photo it won't! :-S
