I’ve already put up a post about cloths
Marshmallow or coconut ice?
baggy bloomers and a leftover newborn soaker

butterfly pants for J13, who initially didn’t like the fabric, but it grew on her and eventually she requested it!


hydrangea baggy pants for me – I saw a lady when we were camping with something similar and asked her if I could have a look at how they were made – cheeky huh! I came home, changed the design and have myself some very comfy pants. Just need a button on the side coz they fly open when racing around the park chasing balls. The belt loops at the back are made with ribbon that Poh-poh put on a dress she made for our eldest niece (who will be twenty-one this year….crikey I wasn’t even married then, though I had met my love) – even in our new clothes I try to include a little something recycled!


one floral, three shorts……after fourteen years of wearing the same pair of shorts for exercising, Father Bear insisted I get myself something new! I decided to go for a fabric I like, but usually wouldn’t necessarily wear….and there was enough left over for two of the girls to have a pair of shorts as well. Don’t worry, we won’t all wear them at the same time
No picture of my ones, but they are exactly the same design as my trousers, only a short version.

even with brand new pants, this waif looks scruffy!

Rachael you are so clever!! I love the knitting (love that wool!) and your pants look to be a really comfy design! Well done you!
I cried reading your previous post about FIL’s wife. So sad.
Very cool Rach.
your baggy pants remind me of a pair I bought in the Sunshine Coast a good 5 or so years ago. They are ultra comfy!
You in inspire me to get sewing!!
Have a lovely day!
