Well done. Some of you spotted in the last post I was wearing unusual pants. Yes they are rather, um, jazzy aren't they?
Well, that's because they are a new twist on the Lounge Pants phenomenon that blew around craftblog world a year or so ago, based on a pattern by Amy Butler.
Last week I scored some vintage sheets whilst thrifting, and I also picked up some pillowcases that were, for the want of a better expression, waaaay past their use by date. Really, man, they were wasted.
Not sure of what to make with them, it just hit me: lounge pants out of pillowcases!, and after a little soiree with my sewing machine these were born.
Lounge pants.
For lounging in.
Because, really, with jazz like that you couldn't do anything else in them, could you?
Happy Ramadan! Oh I could use some cozy pants like that to help me get through these fasts!
