So I had some stitching success last week - I stitched two lines of my son's blanket with my walking foot. 'Twas easy, but good grief it was slow. I *will* keep going with the blanket, but I get bored and seek the more instant gratification of sewing new clothes.
Today I decided to revisit a previous fail, using a Big 4 pattern to make children's pants. I have attempted this before, the results were not very wearable. Since then, I have just avoided sewing pants from these patterns did children. This was fine when I was only sewing for my daughter, but now I am sewing for my son too, pants need to come into the equation.
So I traced off McCall's 6779 in some stash pin whale cord - fruity no less and we'll see how they go. Hopefully they will be assembled tomorrow.
I'm planning in sewing some pants for myself in the next couple of weeks, so it's always good to have a mini practice, it's just a shame mine won't be fruity, or elastic waisted.
