Craft Challenge: Wardrobe Refashion

I would have posted this last week had I not been incapacitated for two days (I'm not gonna say why. Only Cat knows). Anyway, this refashion is dedicated to Jake, who I rarely get to make stuff for.
The first is a pair of cool hand-me-down camo pants. The problem was that the waist fit perfectly, but Jake's darn tall for his age and the pants were looking bit too outgrown on him. Solution: chop it up into shorts.


I also found a little tear on the backside and, knowing how boys are, I decided to patch it up with a bit of the extra cloth i cut off the leg.

The next one is a shirt that Jake rarely wore. I modified it for the upcoming bad (hot) weather coming this summer.


Cut off sleeves and added ribbing (salvaged from an old red shirt). And here it is on Jake.



PS. will post better pictures when the camera batteries get charged.
(Disclaimer: Disney owns Lightning McQueen. I just refashioned the shirt.)
