Bed Sheet Culottes


I had to alter my culottes pattern, so I wanted a fabric that I could use as a muslin to test my alterations. Culottes require quite a bit of fabric, so I bought a bed sheet from a thrift store (and thus had an ample amount of fabric to work with).


I didn’t run into any issues sewing this pattern; it was pretty simple. It uses buttons for closures, rather than a zipper. And it has pockets—which is awesome. The culottes took me a bit of time to finish them (as I slowed slowly here and there during the weekends). And overall, I’m satisfied with the results. I’d like to try this pattern again with a heavier fabric, and perhaps one of the different versions of it.

Thrifted for $4.99


I got a tin and bed sheet for $3.99. This Premium cracker tin is awesome.


I thought I could turn this bed sheet into a pair of culottes. It’s not a color or pattern I would normally wear, but it feels very summery.


And then I got a garlic press and two spice tins for $1.
