My Caroline Dress pattern was in Pattern Parcel #2, so I was happy to join in on the tour this time. Pattern Parcel #3 is chock full of women’s patterns for an excellent price!I chose to sew up the Prefontaine Shorts for women, which were designed by Jill from Made With Moxie, and let’s just say that I had fun getting photos.(and yes, for those of you that might not know, I wear a leg brace… and I wore my tie dye one just for this shoot)

Immediately, I got a retro vibe from them, and of course, I couldn’t resist getting all ridiculous and dressed up.

Paired with aviators, a men’s tank, tennis racket, knee high socks, and sweatbands… I was good to go.

Now, why are Hayley’s pockets different looking than the photos of others, you might be asking?

I will explain…. I screwed up… hahah. No, really. I did.
I was rushing to get these finished, it was the first day of summer break, I had two kids running around me screaming something about liar liar pants on fire, and I literally flipped the front pieces without realizing…. Until I was attaching the back to the front.

By then, it was too late, so I went with it and told myself that it gives them even more “personality”. hah

There were a few people watching us… which would frazzle most people, but I went with it. I assume they believed I was a real deal professional tennis player. I mean, how could they NOT think that? 😉

Look at that form. Watch out Sports Illustrated, here I come!

This picture cracks me up… We had the kids sitting off to the side and I was posing and Ainsley yelled “Mommy, you are looking GOOD!” HAHAHAH

So, clearly, these shorts are perfect for comfortable wear and they will get a ton of use! I did have to take them in a few inches around the legs, but my legs ARE pretty skinny. I did the shortened length.
