I was rolling on the floor laughing at this post earlier today. It appears my mom and two aunts have decided to start a new tradition at their regularly scheduled quilting weekend at the camp. They're dying their undies. Well, painting them to be more exact. Yup. That's what I said-painting their panties with spring colors!
And, that led me to remember that I haven't told you about these:
Do you know how hard it is to find cute boxers for little boys? I wanted Valentine's boxers for my LM and couldn't find any small enough. So, Simplicity 9958 to the rescue.
I used 100% cotton fabric and 3/4 inch elastic. I can't comment on the instructions, because I didn't really use them. I did follow along with the diagrams. I used an XS for LM.
I would recommend this pattern to anyone looking for boys' boxers. I think a beginner could easily follow along (with only the basic knowledge of finishing seams, hems, and elastic waistbands). The shorts took less than 1 hour from start to finish. Too cute!
