Laura Petrie pants

I don't know how I got this in my head, but I'm dying to make some Laura Petrie pants.
They're basic tight, slightly-cropped black pants, and I am pretty sure they would go with everything from a flowing floral blouse to a form fitting sweater, and I must make some at the earliest opportunity!
Probably got in my head from seeing these at J Crew.

Summertime and the living is easy

No sewing or knitting going on here in PA. Just visiting my parents and relaxing with the two sweetest little boys that God ever made (some possible bias, though). Aside from some flashbacks to last fall, when I stayed here for 3 months while Hubs was in Afghanistan, all is going very well. If I get the energy tonight, I'll start work on some swimsuits for the boys.
