The kids picked out some funky flannel at Spotlight a little while back and I finally got the chance to make them up - just as the weather starts to warm up :)
There's really not much to say - I used Butterick 5853 for the two animal print pairs and Simplicity 3577 for the white pair. The all had over an inch taken off the top of the waist and I had to add bands to the bottom of the Simplicity pair because the stated finished length was significantly shorter than the actual finished length! I did laugh when I was reading How good is that and saw that she'd used the same fabric for her pj pants.
While I was on a bit of a roll in the sewing room I finally made myself a cushion for my chair. Nothing too fancy - just a simple envelope with a little piping but I love the bright yellow scissor print.
And my final piece of miscellaneous sewing? A giant bag, a tent bag to be exact. The bag our tent was stored in disintegrated so Wade asked me to make him a new one. It never hurts to have a few brownie points in the bank so I used some old fabric that we found at his parents house and made a simple drawstring bag.
Not the most glamorous sewing, but definitely very handy. Hopefully I'll have a new dress to show you very soon.
