Made out of leftover quilting fabric and a reclaimed linen duvet cover! He loves them and his cousins want sushi pants now too

I had sushi pants, but I've gained weight since then and no one has goofy print flannel like JoAnn (PBUH) did. This pic is from the last time I remade the sushi pants (time before last I gained weight), which shows the fabric wear from how much I loved those pants. Tho it's not like cheap JoAnn flannel was that high quality.

I would love to make these for my wife, she'd absolutely love them!

One of these days, I'll actually get back into sewing and break out my machine.
