Mr. Two-Faced Pants Times Three

A while back I had made these three shirts for the Pregnancy Care Centre Sew Along.

I decided to whip up some 3 month pants to go along with them to make complete boy outfits!
 

The denim is from the second hand store--over 2 yards for $4.99--quite the steal!
And, the pattern is from the book, 'Sewing For Boys'--Mr. Two-Faced Pants.

Sewing for Boys: 24 Projects to Create a Handmade Wardrobe 

 
Instead of a folded over waistband from the denim, I modified the pattern to make a knit waistband--a little softer for those little babies! Plus, I also decreased the width of the pattern by folding a pleat in the pattern piece. I find the patterns in the book run a little wide.

 
Make sure you hop over to Craftyhour Mom and enter the giveaway if you're sewing along with us!

    Adore the pockets on the pants, and your right about the waistbands, good idea.
