Description

i made his and his combat/cargo shorts for the summer, and thought id make a wee shirt for hamish to protect him from the sun. so these photos are from a xmas party, and lulu had on a dress i made also, im behing the camera in a dress i made, freaky home made day out. the shorts i think are fab but boy oh boy time consuming is not the word,, so slow,, both my male creatures love them so well worth it. both patterns are burda ones, the mens trousers are shortened trouser pattern

    Love them! What pattern did you use? I’ve been looking around but all I can find are elasticated waists!!

    I wouldn’t think it’s freaky – I think it’s awesome! Love all the things you made and the shorts look so pro!

    What lovely photos of your family and all dressed so beautifully by you. The shorts are so well made, you must be proud of them, especially after so much work.

      hey thanks, i think they are great too, and nice for them to have matching something, as i fear ive neglected them a bit with obsessive dress making for me and lulu,, nice day very hot !!
