On Saturday we had a bit of a heat wave and I realized I have no shorts for Vinny. Then I realized that none of the projects I had planned for the KCWC frenzy are shorts. I need to remedy that stat.
I did pull out a pair of pants that I made for Vinny almost exactly two years ago for the KCWC challenge and they fit. As shorts. I was totally shocked. That's one reason I love the pattern so much. It's really quite a roomy fit. They are below the knee totally adorable surfer style. They looked cute for about 10 minutes.
Then he discovered a mud puddle we created for our duck. Our duck Quackers was pretty upset that he took over her earthworm hunting spot.
Needless to say, these "new"shorts are totally ruined.

Oh my gosh! Noooooooo! Naughty Sascha! I'm slowly learning that light coloured clothing and small boys don't mix. I guess the fact that he's a cute little critter, makes up for it!
They can be his 'mud puddle pants' now!
Cute though!
Haha, yes! Perhaps a date with some dark gray dye...??
This is hilarious! I am always such a wacko about Felix getting dirty in his new mama made clothes, but that's pretty hard to control with a super active nearly three-year-old. I like Kirstin's idea of experimenting with gray dye. They're too cute to toss!
Oh, Vinny! It's true - boys and light fabrics don't always mix well. You've put the fear of mud into me, because I was just sewing up some light khaki pants for my three year old right now. Oh, dear.
Noooo, they were such cool shorts. Definitely try the dye. He does look cute though.
I get SO sad when clothes I make get ruined. I know I should expect it because it ALWAYS happens but it still hurts! They were cute though =)
