Handmade with care by Sheela


For Sheela's birthday she received a pattern for pants and as much fabric as she wanted to choose for her use. She selected three fabrics and began making her own clothes last night. The first pair will be denim with a silver under layer. She cut out the fabric, sewed the button holes and joined the side seams for the legs. Tonight she will join the legs, create a wist, thread in the elastic, add the fake tie/draw string and hem them. They should be wearable by morning.

She has some super-soft plain denim and black fleece to choose from for the next pair.

That's a great gift, and I'm sure Sheela will do a great job. We'd love to see a photo when they're done!
