Recycled Shorts

Rosie had the cutest pair of bermuda jean shorts. They had a little design on them with a palm tree. She decided she would practice the splits. While wearing them. They riiiiipped down the leg-- not even on the seam!

I thought it would be a shame to let those shorts go to waste. I cut the shorts along the jeans, up to the crotch. I had to cut a little extra where she tore them. Then I cut out two triangles from yellow material, hemmed it, and sewed it on the front and back of the jeans.

Maybe my sewing skills aren't so terrible, after all!
