Knit shorts ushering in the summer!

Ahh the joys of summer, cleaning out the winter clothes and filling their drawers with t-shirts, tank tops and shorts. Oh wait my daughter has no shorts; time to get out the scrap boxes. This may take a while..........................................................................................................................................................

OK so I found pink rib knit with cheerleader themed print and plain purple (had to go through six boxes). I'm trying not to buy more fabric this month. I am saving up to buy enough fabric to make a line of clothing to sale at the Just Between Friends consignment in September. I'm hoping it will be a launching place for my line.
Anyway I've gotten off track, back to the shorts and the pictures.
So on this pair I painted with glitter. The squid reminded me of water and summer, so here it is. I really like the glitter paint from Tulip. Found it at Big Lots for $3.00, just wished they had different colors. The squid is a stencil from the Crayola air brush set.  Once it dries I will add a shark on the
other side.
This pair of shorts is made from pink rib knit with a cheerleader theme. This fabric came from Hancock 's originally meant for pull-ups. Had about a half yard left. Wish I had more so I could add it to the Just Between Friends Sale.
