How Slow Can I Sew ... ?

I often start a project and lose my sewing mojo mid-project.  A current example is the mid-length shorts project in progress.

Last weekend (OK, so it Was a Long Weekend) I started work on a new pair of shorts using Kwik Sew 2806. I have used this pattern before for short-shorts and long pants.  I traced the pattern pieces sometime last weekend, then set them aside - of course!

Anyway, all I got done by Monday night was the cutting-out of the front pieces.  The back pieces have not yet been cut.  Here are pictures to show what I have done so far:

Today's Sewing - KS2806 shorts

I used the skirt of an old dress to create a pair of shorts using the KwikSew pattern 2806. I have not taken a picture of the end product, but hope to do so after a couple more loads of laundry. I took pictures of the construction process.

I made up the pocket pattern, and I hope to publish its drafting instructions soon.

I also cut the fabric for two tote bags for my DH. It's a start!
