Kids Clothes Week July 2014

Clever Charlotte Finch Shorts by nest full of eggs
 Kids Clothes Week is done and I finished the two pairs of shorts that I had planned to make.

 I got this Clever Charlotte Finch Shorts paper sewing pattern back in January and now I finally sewed up a pair. I love that there are buttons, but no buttonholes! Instead of the full pleats I made box pleats because I really like box pleats and liked how Jessica's turned out. These were made up in size 6 in khaki cotton twill. Khaki bottoms are required at school as part of the school uniform. Maybe she'll wear these on the first day of school...

 The other pair of shorts I made were the Oliver + S Sunny Day Shorts. They are summer pajama shorts sewn up in size 10 in octopus fabric for my octopus loving son. Summer pajama shorts were much needed.

I'm on a shorts kick right now, next I want to sew myself some shorts using this pattern.
