It's no secret that I have a love for things handmade and a thing for vintage. I've scored a few vintage fabrics and patterns at thrift shops. I decided to put them together for a pair of boat pants.
Here's my model...the front and the back.
He loves them a whole lot.
Apparently vintage boat pants inspire a bit of a dance party.
I LOVE it!!! It looks so cute on him. I guess you ended up figuring out how to adjust the vintage pattern to fit him better? I really need to snag a vintage pattern and give it a try.
That bottom left picture is especially awesome. It looks right out of an old movie.
Thank you, thank you!!! And good memory! I did end up scrapping the first piece of fabric for the front of the overall and made a longer one. Turned out to be an easy fix.
You know... I could always send the pattern along to let you borrow if Q wants a pair. :)
