I’ve been working on a bunch of linen pants and shorts lately. Here are some #pietrapants from @closetcorepatterns in Brussels Washer Linen from @stitchsewshop, with bonus back pockets.

I made a #ddmelilot shirtdress four years ago and I think I’ve only worn it 3 or 4 times. I liked it, but I always felt like the skirt needed some lining and I just don’t wear dresses that often. I shortened it into a shirt and now I’ll wear it way more! Second picture is the before.
