Had been looking blog hopping and have been amazed by the nice skirts and pants that other mothers had sewn for their cuties. Although I did sew a few dresses at the beginning of the year, I don’t find them fantastic. Hence, I put off sewing clothings and simply stick to other stuffs.
However, Ash is growing and is out growing her wardrobe and since we are on a tight budget, I thought it is time to start sewing some wearable for her.
I started with a pair of pants for her but it turned out a little too big and it looks like her dad’s boxers.
Then I went on to sew two pairs of pants for Aver and it turned out better. So this particular fabric will be used for more tight pants. I will try another one out for Ash.
And last night, I decided to sew a pair of 3/4 pants for Ash and that did not come out at all. First, despite the fabric being very cute, after cutting it out, I realised the pair of pants may end up looking like jammies. That is not what I intend it to be. Second, I failed to put the pair of pants together. Thinking that I had sewn three pairs the night before, I should have no problem with this pair. WRONG! WRONG! WORNG! I kept sewing the wrong seams together and I took almost an hour sorting it out. At my last failed attempt, I gave up on it.
So it was not fated to be a 3/4 pants, I cut up the fabric and sewn a skirt for Aver instead. That turned out well.
So here are what I had sewn…
Here they are giving their wonderful poses.
Tonight, I will tackle the pants for Ash again!
