Fui encontrar mais umas fotos perdidas de um outro molde que testei para a Sew Chibi e que nunca chegaram ao blog. Desta vez foi o molde Natsu Shorts*, nem sequer tenho umas fotos assim mais ou menos para vos mostrar, mas não queria deixar passar, uma vez que, como é sabido, gosto muito dos moldes Sew Chibi, falo tanto deles e a maior parte nem sequer tinha publicado por aqui.
I found a few more lost pictures from yet another pattern I tested for Sew Chibi, and has never made it to the blog. This time it is the Natsu Shorts*, I don't even have better pictures of these to show, but I didn't want to let it go by, since, as you guys know, I really like Sew Chibi's patterns and I keep saying it but most of the patterns I haven't post yet.

Além disso, os dois que fiz caem na categoria da reciclagem e do reaproveitamento daquilo que já temos e achei por bem falar sobre isso. Como podem ver pela primeira foto, fiz dois calções com o molde, um para ele, outro para ela. Comecemos pelo dela, para qual utilizei as mangas e uma tira que sobraram de uma t-shirt que já tinha reaproveitado para um outro projeto. Usei também os restos de uma malha (que usei aqui) e ainda uma t-shirt que ela adorava e que já não servia.
Besides, both shorts fall under the refashion and what we already have upcycle cathegories, and I wanted to mention that. As you can see for the above photo, I made two of these with this pattern, one for him and one for her. Let´s start with hers, in which I used sleeves and a piece I had left from a shirt I refashioned for a previous project. I also used a knit scrap (that I used here) and a pre-loved, outgrown t-shirt of hers.
Usei então os restos da primeira para fazer o cós e os punhos das pernas. O tecido de malha para o corpo principal dos calções e a t-shirt dela foi reaproveitada para dar mais personalidade à peça. Escusado dizer que a miúda adorou e que os calções foram usados infinitas vezes.
So I used the first shirt scraps for the waist and leg bands. The knit fabric was used as mais and her t-shirt was used to add a bit of persosnality to the piece. I don't need to say she loved it so much and these got to be worn over and over.
É uma pena que já não sirvam... confesso que eu também gostei imenso do resultado. Temos gostos parecidos, eu e a mini me.
It's a shame they don't fit anymore... I confess I really liked them a lot too. We have very similar taste, my mini me & I.
E depois dos dela, vamos aos dele. Também reciclei duas peças de mulher. Uma t-shirt às riscas e uma outra toda preta e simples. A ideia, se bem me recordo era fazer o corpo dos calções às riscas mas não conseguia cortar as duas peças da peça original que eu tinha, porém, não deixei de a usar por isso. Consigo ser tão teimosa quando quero.
And after hers, let's see his. I also got to refashion, two women piece this time. I used a striped t-shirt and a plain black one. The idea was to use the striped one as main for the legs but it wasn't possible to cut both legs from that shirt, however, I didn't stop using it because of that. I can be very stubborn when I want to.

E é aí que entra o desafio criativo que tanto me motivo nestas coisas. Então, usei a dita t-shirt para fazer uma das pernas dos calções, e usei a preta para a outra. Para o cós usei a preta também, e nos punhos das pernas, troquei os tecidos para criar um contraste engraçado. Gostam?
There's when the creative challenge kicks in and I get so motivated. So, I used the said t-shirt for one of the legs only, and the other one, the black, for the other leg. For the waistband I used the black shirt too, and for the legbands I swapped the leg and the band fabrics for a fun contrast. Do you like it?
Tal como os dela, estes calções tornaram-se uns dos nossos preferidos e tiveram imenso uso. São fáceis de fazer para nós, e fáceis de vestir e despir para eles. E claro, super confortáveis, o que é muito importante por aqui.
Just like happened to hers, these became some of our fave shorts and they were worn over and over. They are a quick sew for us, and pretty easy to put on and off for them. Oh, and of course, they are super comfy, which is madly important around here.

E aquela barriga fofinha aqui em cima? O meu pequenino tem sido sempre tão difícil de fotografar, é que ele não consegue não se mexer por mais de dois segundos. Enfim, ao contrário do que fiz nos calções dela, nos dele optei por não colocar o cordão na cintura (e mesmo o dela, acabámos por retirar pouco depois pois ela não gostou muito).
Look at that cute tummy above? My little man has always been sohard to photograph, he just can't stand still for more than two seconds. Anyway, contrary to what I did on hers, his shorts do nor have a tie at the waist, I skipped it for his (and even in hers we took it out short after because she didn't like it much).
