What I'm Working On


I'm challenging myself to make Boylee a more official kind of pants, from this pattern. These have front pockets, back pockets, and a drawstring and elastic waist. It's pretty much my first time sewing from a commercial pattern. Done so far: traced the pattern, cut my fabric, made the drawstring. Next up: front pockets and their linings.
This pattern goes up to size 8 so if it works, it's definitely worth the cost. Of course I will continue with the quick 'n easy pants that take 15 minutes and no pattern to make.

Can't wait to see how they turn out.

Your great-grandfather (Poppy ... who was a men's custom tailor) would be so proud!

Bet you'll be doing zippers next!
