Huck Finn Pants

I was very ambitious before Norah was born—I earmarked a lot of cute patterns and bought a lot of cute fabric. One project, however, only got as far as being cut out before D-day. Somehow (and I'm not even sure how I managed this—probably by ignoring the laundry) I actually put it together the other day: a pair of Huck Finn pants from Weekend Sewing by Heather Ross.

My version is a little different than Heather's, in that I added a little extra room in the rear for a cloth diaper. And for some reason the legs are pretty wide on mine, but I figure if they're ridiculous when she actually gets to wear them (I made the 6 - 12 month size) I'll tailor them accordingly.

They were really simple to put together and use so little fabric (at that size anyway) that I'll probably make a few more pairs. That is if I can continue to ignore the laundry...

Happy sewing everyone!
