~ Fancy Pants ~

A wonderful friend of mine is expecting and had a shower over the weekend. I was so upset that i didn't get to attend cause i was out of town! :( I did however mail her gift to the shower location. I didn't want to be a total looser friend and not have anything for her on her special day. I have been working on several things for her and her new baby girl. But i wanted to show you the "Fancy Pants" i made. I have always loved the fancy pants on my little girl. When she was under a year she always had a pair of fancy pants on. Usually with her name but that is all i would let myself buy...those things are not cheep. Now that i have my own embroidering machine i can make all kinds of fancy pants. I knew how much i loved them and i wanted to make some for my friends little girl. I first found the SOFTEST material. Then i rounded up my bloomer pattern and got to work. When i was done i couldn't believe how tiny they looked. It was kinda hard sewing such tiny clothing. I had 3 pair ready for something to embroider on them. First pair i wanted to make for Thanksgiving. I was trying to think of what i wanted on them and "Gobble Gobble" came to mind. So that is what i went with......



They turned out wayyyyyy cuter than i ever imagined. :o)

Then i wanted to do something for Christmas. So i made these......

I have only one word for these....CA-UTE!

Now the story of the third....long story short....my machine ate them! HAHA!! No really when i went to embroider them...my machines tension got off and all the sudden a thousand stitches in one spot. And that leads to the material getting stuck in the machine and then when i tried to pull the out the oh so soft material....ripped! I was so very upset to say the least that this happened. Cause i was out of time. But i did manage 2 cute pair of fancy pants and sent them on their way. I can't wait to see them on sweet baby girl!

I still have TONS of this soft material left. So if anyone is interested in purchasing a pair of these darling fancy pants...send me a quick email for pricing. :o) They would make great gifts!!
