Time and Pants


Time management is not my current strong point, so I hope that people are still enjoying my blog posts though tiny and sparse... I have to take photos, transfer them to my flash drive and then sneak them to work to publish on my breaks. This process can often take a week or more. Also a victim of my time management is sewing projects! But my pantaloon obsession still manages to be fed from time to time. Here are some swanky plaid pants that I made for Ronan. I usually only ever sew using cotton fabric- like quilter's cotton. So it was fun to experiment with a knit fabric. I'm actually not quite sure what fabric this was, but I think maybe a wool blend. It was a remnant that I saw out of the corner of my eye as I breezed through the store. Immediately "pants!" came to mind so I nabbed the remnant and brought it home. It was the perfect amount for Ronan's pants and even had enough for the pockets on the side.

Oh, this is a fun picture. I just noticed that the blanket he is sitting on is the first quilt I ever made, and he's leaning up against a pillow, and I made that case out of some retro Alexander Henry fabric. :-)
