These patchwork pants come in a range of colors and styles, and are available in sizes 6 months up to 8 years.  There are even yoga pants for mom and cute patchwork skirts for little girls.  I have had my eye on this company from Oregon for some time now, and I'm so in love with these colorful pants!
