I didn't get that talent.

My mom sewed them for me but lingerie departments had them too. I'm still a sewist and have thought of making some today as a slip alternative. They are basically like elastic waist pants made in lingerie fabric with an elastic waist (and usually a cute bow at the waist). Also they often had lace along the bottom edge.Also fun to sew a camisole that matches. <br /><br />Just in case others who read your blog are sewists. I think I will go and write a blog posting in my sewing blog about these! No, I didn't come here to promo my blog. I came in response to your Spark People note re: my Disneyland posting.L.R.
