Here is Dad in one of his favorite polo shirts!
Halloween 2011 |
Alas, the shirt got old. So I made it into a pair of shorts.
I used Sewing for Boys' Bobby's Bathers pattern but modified the pockets and the waistband. I added a second pocket to the front (and moved them more to the front from the side), and another to the back.
I also got to skip the hemming because I arranged the pattern pieces to use the existing polo shirt hem.
To make the waistband, I took similar fabric and made a casing with elastic.
I love these shorts! They make us all think of Daddy every time they are on, plus they are roomy and allow for plenty of movement.
