Hello sailorette!

Voila, sailboat pants in a size 3, from Oliver & S. Wonderful pattern.

And here she is. Piaf got fascinated by her belly button while modelling.

They’re a little long, but she’ll have all winter to grow into them.

Have almost finished the skirt – out of a Nina Wish jacket I bought more than 15 years ago. I just need to get some buttons.

The fabric is just the best…. they don’t make it like that anymore. Sigh. Feels good to finally make something out of this old garment that’s been lying around in a drawer for probably a decade.

  1. Adorable pants. I need to get myself one of O&S patterns … Good use of your jacket!

  2. Oh I have this pattern too- Great to hear it worked well for you! I’m keen to make the top too. Must rummage around and see if I have some suitable fabric for the pants for C for this winter, although I’m currently half way through a couple of other pairs of Ottobre pants at the moment… He is in need of new pants though..

  3. Those shorts/ pants are super cute. My teenager would love them…

  4. Love the pants – I think I need to get that pattern for next summer.

  5. Hey – thanks for visiting the blog! I think the mosaic would be totally fine outside, just as long as you use a watertight sealant to protect it from the elements!!
