Rainbow Dino pants and another Imke

Michael was rather excited about his new Dino pants.
I made them to match the jacket I made him.

I made Rose an Imke.
I added some ribbon to the tail of the hood.
The hood is lined and sleeves bound with velour.
Michael is a very co-operative model.
A bit of a poser really.
Whenever the camera comes out he puts on the charm.

It's a spotlight polar fleece. I bought it to make nappy covers for Michael at night. I don't think I'll have enough left to do that.

what pattern did you use for the dino pants and applique Tracy???

I drew the applique using Martha Pullens' book as a guide. Her dinosaurs were too big so I drew a smaller version. The pants were a mix match. In that I used a Kwik Sew pattern from clothes for toddlers to get the crotch line, I lengthened the rise to go over his cloth nappies. I also eliminated the side seam and added a couple of inches to the width to give more nappy room. I shortened the leg to add the polar fleece. I had to as I didn't have enough of the black to make the pants the length I needed!
