So here’s my latest and greatest. I made these pants from the same pattern I used here. I had these almost done for quite a while, but my brain started going into hyper-drive with all the alterations I was going to make to the pattern and I go overwhelmed. When I came to my senses I realized I just needed to tweak a couple of things from the last time – not reinvent the wheel.
I also took better notes this time so I don’t make the same mistakes twice. I took an inch off of the top of the waistband which eliminated the saggy drawers problem we were having (this all happened quite by accident), but I forgot to shrink up the channel for the elastic around the cuffs and I was too lazy to tear it all out and fix it. Hence the reason to take notes, so I don’t screw it up again.
I LOVE the black. I love those striped ruffles and the satin bows! I love the little scallop detail at the bottom side seam on the cuffs. Love, love, love!
And I don’t know if you can tell, but if you look really carefully at the bottom partial purple-and-white flower on the photo above and the flower on the right hand side in the picture below you can see little sparkles. I did some pick-stitches with metallic embroidery floss to add just a teeny bit of sparkle to these little babies – for my little baby.
Oh, and I do so love those toes!
