threads, originally uploaded by icewerks.

In the mail today was a box of thread, so I felt I should sew something to celebrate. I guess it's a high compliment that she wouldn't take them off long enough for me to take a better photo, right?


These are the tester pair of the blue Japanese pants from this book. I didn't do the waist band or trims as illustrated but my way worked and I figure if I can't read the instructions, then my way goes.
Soft featherweight cotton ticking, a bit of a paperbag ruffle at the top of the waist for a girly touch.

Good enough. We'll be seeing more versions in the coming weeks, this I am certain if I ever want to wash these.

Cute cute cute!!! I love them.

And that's it... I need to get my hands on some ticking. And some more Japanese books...

Thanks for stopping by and please feel free to comment -- I love reading them.  However, please do not use my images and/or text without asking my permission first. Thank you.
