Easy Peasy Pants

       

I am so excited to be crafting on soyouthinkyourecrafty.com!!

Did you vote?? So here was my project!

Who doesn’t love a CHEAP, EASY, CUTE sewing project!!!

I love to thrift and see simple shirred dresses like this one on almost every rack! So I thought… “Why not make a pair of girlie pants out of these castaways?”

The ruffle is there, the elastic is there and the side seam is sewn… simple simple simple!

Using a pant pattern or really just another pair of pants, I created the legs, using the ruffle along the bottom of the dress as the ruffle along the bottom of the pants. I also used the already sewn side seam of the dress as the side seam of the pants.

I altered the shirred top of the dress to be the waistband of the pants and that is it!

Added a fabric flower for f.u.n. to the waistband…

And that is it!

This simple pair of pants took about 10 minutes and cost 2.99!  I hope you go make some too!
