Pirate outfit in action



Zboy adores his new pirate T and shorts set. Just for fun, here are some action pics! (I always like to see what the clothes look like on)

Showing off the flat front-I really like it this way, instead of an entire elastic waistband.

Piratey goodness



Zboy's friend turned 3 this week, and we were invited to his birthday party! As you all know, I have an unabashed love of all things piratical. I made a set for Zboy as testers, and as they're mostly the same size, I'm hoping it will fit the birthday boy well!
I made the shorts using the tutorial here (I just adore this blog) and the first pair was way too small. I ended up adding 3" total around to the pattern. I added my favorite cut-out applique, and piratey goodness ensued.

The fabric is an odd shade, so I decided to make matching initial appliqued shirts as well. Done on my new machine with the applique/blanket stitch-so super fast and easy!

Pirate pants



I traced a pair of Zboy's pants for this pattern. Unfortunately, I didn't trace well enough, and they were too small. The appliques are cut out from some fleece fabric I had and sewn on. I ripped out the side seams and put in a panel of contrasting fabric, installed an elastic waistband, and voila! The piratiest pirate pants of all!

You can also see I finally got around to painting the rocket Daddy G made. He loves the new paint job!
