The Super Online Sewing Match II

I am so excited to announce, I am one of the ten contestants in the Super Online Sewing Match II!!! Welcome to Sew Spoiled if you are new and coming from Sew Mama Sew take a look around and stay as long as you like. You will find sewing tutorials, inspiration and crafty goodness. I made these cute shorts from Amy Butler, Harriet's Kitchen Sugar Fabric. The pattern is McCall's #6361. Once you find your correct fitting with this pattern you can make a skirt, shorts or pants from it. Wow, I had this in my stash forever. I always thought it would make a great wristlet. Now it is a pair of shorts. I love how fabric is so versatile.  I still have not heard what the first challenge will be so I am biting my nails. This contest is the best summer roller coaster out there! Thank you Beth and Kristin from Sew Mama Sew for including me in this challenge.
