Lately I have been enjoying sewing elastic waist pants (or comfs as we call them in our house) for my boys. I love the light summer cotton prints that are out now and I happened to find older boy and baby boy turtle fabrics.
I used New Look patterns (6880 for the baby and 6641 for my three year old) but added cuffs in coordinating fabric. What was great is that I was able to make two pairs of comfs for each child at the same time. I just pinned two fabrics to each pattern and cut. And then I cut out cuffs. My three year old loves his so much, that it has been a challenge to get them into the wash. He wants to sleep and play in them. And the best part is that they can be whipped out really quickly.
I also made my husband a pair, but he wouldn't wear turtles, so his are blue.
