Baby Big But Pants

Do these make my but look big?

What can I tell you? I have one adorable chunky baby with a huge cloth diaper booty:

It has been a challenge to find pants that fit this little munchkin. I had the same problem with my daughter, so this challenge is not new to me. With her I settled with sweat pants a size up. But now that I have a sewing machine, I decided to try and make some pants.

After I scoured the blog land for some tutorials on big but pants, I kept coming at the same conclusion: Rae's Big But sewing pattern.

Off course, me being such a penny pincher, I did not want to pay $10.00 for the pattern, So I attempted making some pants myself with the same idea as Rae's pants. However, they didn't work out, They still were not big enough in the thigh area.

After that FAILED, I went and bought the pattern online.

And I am sure glad I did. When you think about it, I can make endless amounts of pants and shorts for my little guy, the pattern goes up to 2T.

I made these out of knit, That is all I had on hand today. I will certainly be making more once I hit the fabric store.

I made his in size 12 months. I love how wide they are in the leg:

See how wide they are in the crotch? No pinching there:

Love them!

The pattern is easy to follow, After using the directions on the first two, I was able to make the third pair without using the directions at all.

I made all three pairs during the kids nap time.

These two are made out of my hubby's old t-shirts:

I highly recommend this pattern :)
