Here are those jeans-to-shorts I worked on recently! I'm so proud. *grins*
These were a pair of capris, which fit perfectly well, but were really weirdly flared at the ends, just above the ankles, and it looked really strange. And after a few fruitless trips to the mall, trying to find a cute pair of shorts that were also cheap, I decided to make my own. (I mean, the ones I wanted in Kamiseta were 800 pesos! I can't spare that for shorts!)

Here's how they look. Sorry I don't have any "before" pictures, I wasn't able to borrow a camera yet.
Here's a close up of my spontaneous embroidery on the pocket:
Look at my tabs! Oooooohh, yeah.
Close up of the vintage buttons Mom never got around to using:
Tadah! Possibly my best clothing reconstructing project ever.
Now I have shorts! Thank goodness.
