Today in sewing

finished a quilt top for the Hubby. It was supposed to be a throw size but it turned into almost queen sized. No pictures I have to iron it first (and figure out how to take a picture, it's so big)

Anyway I flew by the seat of my pants and made something else when I was done with the quilt top. 

Took a pair of  pants and placed them down on the folded fabric. Then took a sharpie and drew the cut lines. Very technical. Cut the fabric and sewed together. Even did fancy seams. Then added elastic and

Boom


Baggy (very baggy) lounge around flannel pants. I do need to put a draw string in but other then that they are comfy. I bought the fabric at 1.75 a yard on clearance. So the three yards equal $5.25. Pretty cool.

Oh, yeah, what is a quilt top anyway? Curious. And you don't necessarily have to show the whole thing. Fold it up and take a pic. No?
