So, enough of making cute things for this tiny being who does not yet have a body to himself! I made some pants for me, this time!
Don't judge... I haven't taken a shower or finished my first cup of coffee yet today.
I used the same idea as for Stig's pants, and super-sized it. My mom had sent me a pair of flannel pajama pants she found at a thrift store (I'm pretty sure they've never been worn, even! Good find, mom!) that will hopefully keep fitting me as I get bigger this fall. They are green with pictures of Eeyore all over them. Not exactly a fashion statement, but they are pajamas, after all, so who really cares. The only things I wasn't completely thrilled with were the drawstring waist and the fact that they tapered at the ankle (and will probably shrink a bit and be too short for my gargantuanly long legs.
It also so happened that I had about 3 yards of flannel fabric that I've
been meaning to make some pajama pants out of, so I decided no time
like the present and pulled out the fabric yesterday. I used the Eeyore
pants as a general template, making the legs much wider at the bottom,
just eyeballing it. I really hate to measure, which probably negatively
affects my sewing, but I don't really care. A few LLLLOOOONNNGGG
seams, some hems, and some elastic in the waist (yes, I have reams of
elastic just laying around my house as well) and we're done!
And for proof that I really am pregnant, and not just making up this tiny being that has taken over my body and life, a preggo picture:
