Snow & Sew Crazy


I love these pants by Joah Love.

Another snow day. It's freezing. I am looking to warm up my fingers. After making a few projects on my new sewing machine, and cleaning out my closets, I am looking to make a few things for the boy with my new stash of recyclable clothes. I'll peruse Sew Mama Sew's tutorials, but what I really want to do is this:

First up: Pants. Ever on my mind, as bambino has about a 15 month waist with 2 year length. I am sick of sewing in pants. Maybe some customs in order? And inspired by those Joah Loves, here's some to try, someday (hopefully soon):

Celebrate the Boy's Let's make PANTS! :
