Snowy Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I was given a large bolt of plain cream cotton drill so put it to use for my boys. These are my first attempts at clothes making since making a party dress 18 years ago! Dan's are meant to be long shorts but he is such a little squirt they look like short trousers on him Think I need to adjust that pattern! I prefer the short shorts - will be making a few more pairs of those for their hols Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
