Ian Poulter....eat your heart out :o)

For those of you who do not follow golf (which is practically everyone lol), Ian Poulter is a golfer from Great Britain. Ian is known for his flashy attire. Due to this, he is my son's favorite golfer. Ian even has his own clothing line.
You can find a photo of him here:

Well, a year or so ago, I picked up some Union Jack twill fabric just for fun. Well, for over a year, my son has been begging me to make him some golf pants out of it. I just could not bring myself to do it. This is some LOUD fabric!! Well, after much persistence and much reluctance, I broke down and sewed him some "European golf trousers!" They actually did turn out pretty neat........if you can get over the print!! Exhibit A:

Check out the welted pockets.....if you can find them :o)
It actually was pretty fun to actually sew something for my son......I haven't been able to do that for years.
Well, back to smocking. I'll have some previews of my latest projects soon.
Have a great day!!

  3. Love them, Ang! I think it's too cool that Grant wanted you to make the amazing golfing pants anyway! He's a sweetie! Maybe Grant needs his own line of golf attire?
    Just proves once again that you are an all around talented friend! Hugs, L.
