Al cutting up t-shirt for future pants for Becca.
Al came down to Mapleton with her kids and as always was motivated to work on a project. The pants Natalie and I are wearing used to be t-shirts. Natalie's blue tie dye was Johnny's shirt --hopefully he will not remember it when he gets home in a year. Mine was a black t-shirt with the Swiss army logo centered on the front. Al made some out of a more wild colored tie dye shirt but didn't want to be photographed. We cut up the bottom of different older shirts for the foldover waist band. It was a fun project that used otherwise unwanted shirts. They are super comfortable. We made a pair for Becca for transition post baby wear. Al is making some for her little girls but using a pattern and laying it on the finished edge. The idea is from Al's friend blogspot www.thismamamakesstuff.com. It has a link on directions. Great easy summer project.

I think you should delete the photo of me cutting out. It takes away from the cute one of you two. Also I don't think I'm ever going to wear that shirt again.
My pants are super comfy though - I'm still wearing them.
Thanks again for a fun day.
I'm going to have to come over and see how you made those. Although, I think I'll need an XXXL t-shirt to start with! :)
