Checker Trousers with Ladybug Buttons

Behold the first pair of trousers that I have made with some success. They fit! I added a funky ruffle to the cuffs to lengthen them so that Lucia could wear them in winter. Lucia has been a fan of the checkerboard pattern ever since she first read A House is a House for Me. While the book is a celebration of different kinds of dwellings, it might just as well be a textiles guide for the very young.
