Hello Readers. I went out of town on a family vacation to Hawaii. It took a long time to get there but it was beautiful and well worth the flight time. It is getting colder where I live and I needed clothes for warm weather. So... I made some shorts.
Floral shorts #1
Floral shorts #2
I used the same pattern for both of these shorts. I like this pattern and I knew it fit comfortably. This book has about a dozen easy patterns. I really like it.
These shorts were made from the leftovers of a cotton table cloth. I liked the floral fabric a lot. It's perfect for Hawaii. I cut out my pattern pieces and used the hemmed edge of the table cloth as the hemline of the shorts. That was a big time saver.
I used the serger for these shorts so that the inside of the seams wouldn't fray.
Shorts #1 is ready to go.
I found this skirt a the thrift store. That floral fabric is going to be great for Hawaii too. I didn't think the skirt was very flattering but it could make a great pair of shorts.
I made these shorts the same way as the first pair. I added my tag just for fun. No one will see it but it is like a little pat on the back from me to me, when I finish a project.
Shorts #2 are ready to go. I threw them in a suitcase and headed to the airport.
Thanks for reading along, now go make something fun for yourself.
