I made a short for my baby from left over fabric.

Hello everyone @diyhub community how has the weekends been ?
Mine was fun and more lovely than I expected.
And I am here to share with you all the fabric scraps I had turned into something beautiful.

Here are the simple materials I used

  • left over Ankara piece
  • white t-shirt
  • scissors
  • measuring tape and
  • elastic

First step
I had less than one yard of fabric
It was a beautiful Ankara fabric that I loved so much and I couldn't let it go or trash it
I kept it for a specific purpose that I had no idea about.
The first step I took was to get the waist measurement,I got the length of the short,the flab and the hips measurements

Next step
I joined all the parts together and I started sewing them,it wasn't a difficult sewing because it was an easy style and a short.

Next step
After completing the sewing,it was time for the elastic
I cut out the fabric for the band,I took two and a half inches for it the half inches was for the sewing allowance.
I had taken extra inches for the waist because I knew I was going to use elastic band.

Finally after sewing the band,the elastic was ready and I got the little piece of fabric that had remained and fixed it on my child's t-shirt.

Thank you.
