Sweing for others!! - Sisters Birthday Present!



26th September

It was my sisters birthday on the 25th! And I had now idea what to get or do for her. She LOVES dogs, so i decided to go down to SL and have a look at something to make her some PJ/lounge around pants with!!

Came back with 2 prints and a pattern! Knew i would only have time to do one before we saw her that same night!

Had a go and this is/was my first pair!

Not 100% happy! I HATE side and inner leg seams. I think they feel yucky! Much prefer the one seam on the inner leg! They are a drawstring waist pant and the pattern called for a button hole in the waist bit for the drawstring. Man it was giving me headaches, so i fudged it and made a gap sort of thing and sewed it! Couldnt get a handle of the buttonhole!

She was pretty happy with them. Couldnt beleive they were "personal" and one of a kind!

Fabric was a bit heavy - more a drill. I cant remember what it was. SO more of a home lounger than a PJ!
