      I pinned the same pair of Jcrew shorts and also thought this pattern would be perfect to adapt. GREAT job!!!

      Thank you! I made them to go with the top I posted a couple of days ago. And yes, I'll share how I made them (it's really easy!) when I get some down time. This week is a little crazy as I have ANOTHER kid's birthday party to coordinate for this weekend plus middle school going ons.;)

      Very cute. I would be trembling with the white- Little Bit has a way of destroying white things!

      BK had a pair of white Sailboat pants last year that made it through the summer. And she's my destroyer of all clothing! It's amazing what a soak in Biz or Oxiclean will do plus a little bleach.:)

      Well when you get the down time to share how you made the shorts and the blue 2+2 top don't forget the freezer paper stencil technique too.(I'll bet you forgot you promised me a tute on that! tee-hee)

      Very cute summer staple!

    28. beach_mom (13 months ago | reply)

      *blush* You're right, I forgot.:) I should have thought to take pictures when I made Patrick's shirt. I want to do the Starfish that comes with the Sandbox pants pattern so I will get around to it.

      Thank you!
