I’m using up the “good stuff” and making things I will wear or use. I bought this meter of fabric a few years ago at Tomato in Nippori. I haven’t been able to find any mention of it anywhere else… but it so fabulous. If you look closely, you can see in that graphic, there are animals hiding!!!

I used the same Purl Soho gym shorts pattern but modified it to make the crotch depth a little longer and the legs too… I’m tall and my current work out has put a little junk on my trunk (woot!)

I was a little too generous with the waist elastic, so I’ll need to go back and tighten it up some but overall, really pleased with the results!

Laid out on the floor:

These are amazing. I’m sure having an awesome print fabric like that makes you more inspired to put them on and work out. So lovely!
