Tildy and Trixie need few new clothes.
Both are the recipients of many gorgeous hand-me-downs from their siblings and many generous friends. #sewingfriendsarethebest.
After a quick wardrobe sort the only things lacking were some shorts and tee's.
First up, some classic Puppet Show shorts
Sewn up in a linen/cotton remnant from Spotters with a contrast pocket binding.
Size 5 still has plenty of room.
Another pair, in navy linen, for school.
And finally...
I just reverse the denim for the contrast.
Size 4 with plenty of room yet for tiny Miss Tildy.
~Matilda's Verdict~
I quite like the different colour denim.
They are also very comfy.
They've got lots of room for my legs to fit through.
They are my favourite shorts
I am happy with that.
Trixie is slightly less happy with sharing the spotlight

ReplyDeletethere is no way there would be lots of room for my girls legs to fit through those puppet show shorts! ;o)
She has skinny malinky legs.

Lovely shorts! Have you not made adjustments for the size 5 Puppet Show to fit her? It is a bit tight on my oldest now and I thought they were the same size-ish, but Tildy must be smaller.
ReplyDeleteI am not so good at sizing up pattern Masha, once they don't fit, that will be it.
ReplyDeleteTilly has narrow hips and a chubby bum, I guess the fat squishes so she can get them on :)
Thank you!
