Lounge Pants

November 6, 2010 By Spoonful of Sugar - 25 Comments

Two pairs of Lounge Pants were sewn up last night using the “Take It Easy Lounge Pants” pattern from Sewing Green.

I omitted the cuffs on the pant legs and added a drawstring to the waist band. They are super comfortable and will be just the ticket on our upcoming winter holiday.

After all the magazine projects I have been working on lately, it felt good to be making something for myself! Sarah loves her polka dot pants, and the Bliss flannel is extremely soft and thick.

    I am very jelly-eyed of those pants 😉 I’m a bit of a sporadic and dodgy sew-er but I’m thinking it’s worth dusting off the old girl for those!

Sharing a closer look at the Handy Drawstring Pouc Sharing a closer look at the Handy Drawstring Pouch today — a sweet little project that’s as practical as it is pretty. I stitched this one in the blue and gold colourway of the Tilda Songbird collection and love how the soft watercolour florals shine in a small make. The pouch features cleverly shaped panels (with no boxed corners), stands tall when in use, and folds completely flat for storage. It’s also reversible, which makes it such a fun and versatile sew.   These little pouches are perfect for organising your sewing room, gifting to a friend, or popping into a project bag.The pattern includes three sizes, and you can find it in both my Pattern Store and Etsy shop. Comment HANDY and I’ll send the link straight to your inbox.A big thank you to @tilda_australia for gifting the beautiful fabric.#tildasongbird #drawstringbagpattern #aspoonfulofsugardesigns #tildafabrics #sewingproject
