When I was first contacted by Funkifabrics to see if I'd like to have a play with some of their fabrics I was overwhelmed by the massive choice on offer, Eden however was not. She knew exactly what she wanted and what she wanted me to make...Gym Shorts! This girl is constantly in gym gear, and gym shorts are her favourite attire, when at gymnastics and at home.

We compromised eventually and I ordered some fabrics that I loved to make underwear for me , here,  here and here , (most comfy knickers ever!) and some fabrics to make her gym shorts.



She had a pair she already loved and I did a rub off to make the pattern for these. (Don't forget if you want to learn to clone your closet I am teaching the rub off method at Ministry Of Craft from September 2015)

They were quick and easy to run up on the overlocker, and she is thrilled with them. I will be making more for sure!
