2 kids shorts

I started with this adult shirt, which was a bit too young for me though i liked the dragon print. My three year old is quite into dragons so I thought there was potential there.
 

 This kids T-shirt had a great print, but somehow a bleach make on the back made it unlikely to be worn. But great for the nearly  one year old, with summer coming up, and him starting to crawl. I hide the bleach mark a bit by using the wrong side of that piece as the right side of the finished product.
So here the finished product. I used additional fabric to make them the right size for my patterns, which is simple elastic waisted pants.
I coverstitched the joins and seams with a contract colour to have fun.

These are cool funky shorts. Love the contrasting colours as they make the shorts pop.
