This post is in the spirit of Kids Clothes Week because I actually finished them a couple of week ago. They were leftover from the inspiration of my first Kids Clothing Week where I made these yellow elephant pants.
Everyone was so encouraging and positive that I decided to make another pair from what was left of the Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday fabric I used to make a pinafore for a friend (well, her kid). I got really creative in my cutting to use up every stitch that was left.
These are a bit big at the waist so they'll be lovely capris come Spring. Again, I used the Sailor Pants pattern from danslalune on Etsy. I didn't have many issues putting them together the first time so they went together really quickly.
I pulled the tab from the front forward so that you could see the contrasting fabric. I don't usually use fabrics from the same collection together because it's so matchy-matchy but I think these are so different but so the same that it worked really well.

these are so cute.
They came out great! That fabric is just to die for.
I don't think I've ever seen cooler pants! I love the fabric!
They are cute. They make me think about Oilily for some reason, I guess those colours. I loved Oilily when I was a child (later too, by the way) :-)
These pants are so cute and I love that print.
said it before, say it again: you have amazing taste in fabric! And check out the line-up job on that front seam! Love them. I want a pair.
Thank you all so much for all the great comments! I really appreciate it. These were so much fun to make.
