Hudson x 2

This weekend I enjoyed a lovely birthday weekend, spent with friends, family and quite a bit of sewing time.

In addition to making my first Morris blazer (which I tried to photograph today in the rain, but the photos are not good at all), today I made a pair of True Bias Hudson pants, which I love so much that I very quickly made a second.

The first pair was made with a piece of dark grey marle ponte that has been maturing in my stash for quite a few years.
The second, which I shortened and slightly widened the leg below the knee, was made with a piece of polo type knit that I inherited from a friend's mother, along with a considerable amount of 80's coral and turquoise knit and a stack of knit binding.

I really love these pants and look forward to make more in the near future. They really are such an fast and easy project.

I was particularly spoilt for my birthday and scored a lovely stash of Madelintosh Unicorn Tails skiens and a super awesome IlCentimetro bracelet. I'm feeling totally loved and ready for another big week of school.

Have a great week!

    These are great pants. I haven't tried the Hudson Pants but wear my Papercut Anima's all the time.

    My Hudsons are one if my most worn garments and indeed I am wearing them as I type. No wonder you love them! Happy birthday and look forward to the Morris appearing.

    Awesome! And I'm so impressed with how fast you churned those out. You are a machine! :)

    They look great - I went with the Anima pants but they're pretty similar and so comfy. I'm just about to try out the mini Hudsons
