Last night I had a couple hours on my own, so I cut out these shorts for Eva, and then I sewed them up this morning. There's nothing quite as easy as shorts, and I had been owing Eva these. I bought a bunch of Heather Ross Far Far Away about a month ago, and I chose the frog prince print hoping that Eva would like it, and lucky me she did! She liked it enough to request that it be used for something for her before I even made the offer. How gratifying. We looked through the patterns together to find something she would like to be made up into froggies. There were some very tempting dresses, but in the end we decided that the shorts were more practical. Eva has many dresses that she loves, but doesn't wear much because they don't let her do her favorite summer activities, you know, climbing trees, doing cartwheels, etc. The shorts are letter "o" from Girly Style Wardrobe. I did them in size 140cm, the largest size in the book. Oh how sad she won't fit these patterns for much longer!
hope you're having a lovely weekend.
what size does she wear in u.s. sizes? i think kate may be headed to the 150....
I love your site.
