Many times I get a pattern from some garment from Value Village, cut it apart and then make it in another fabric that I like better.Barbara Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08539568823729411002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3293493646747440510.post-76849911517879860862010-11-15T09:49:08.270+11:002010-11-15T09:49:08.270+11:00Ha!

It involves a child, and a pair of trousers, situated around their head like a toque. If the child is an infant, they will attempt to pull it off by pulling it down...and hilarity ensues. ;-) <br /><br />Thanks for the chuckle!LunaMoonbeamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09945247325982035591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3293493646747440510.post-23901469332847766422010-11-08T15:35:19.387+11:002010-11-08T15:35:19.387+11:00First of all, this post made me laugh a few times!...First of all, this post made me laugh a few times! And secondly, good for you for trying again (and thirdly, link to this pattern company?).<br /><br />My first thought on seeing the pants was; GREAT fit! They do look fabulous on you.<br /><br />Also: I long to sew out-of-envelope as much as possible. I'm a relatively experienced seamstress but I hate fit and alteration (and lack a dressmaker's shape.
