Our KK and G needed shorts for summer. I already had a pattern so I thought I would make them instead of buy. This means (because I already had the fabric or my GREAT Mammaw gave it to me) the shorts I made for them were free!! You have got to LOVE that!!! So first was Our KK. I made her a pair of purple checked shorts to match a shirt she already had as well as a pair of lime colored ones that also matched a couple pf shirts. All made using the McCall's pattern I have.
For Our G, I used a pair of capris that are almost to small for her as the pattern. I LOVE how they look on her hence the use of them. The fabric I used for G's shorts is the same skull fabric I used to put a cell phone pocket on My Loves shorts.
I also made Our J a pair of shorts out of some fabric he picked out and my nephew B a pair of robot shorts for his birthday. However, I forgot (AGAIN) to take pics of these. Bad habit I have, I know.
So, here are the pics I do have of the shorts I have made.
I REALLY like the shorts I made (and so did the kids, YAY!!) and will make more. I actually have more cut out to make. Also, next to skirts, shorts are the EASIEST thing I have ever made. Although, I do not think I have made anything that was really challenging yet. Maybe there will be a challenge in my future. We shall see.
