These are very fun pants. Hubby and I met up with friends Saturday night at Downtown Disney for drinks. I wanted something quick and easy to walk around on a hot and muggy night, so I searched through my stash, and thought these pants would be fun. I got quite a few compliments on them. Though the are a little large. I did a review below, because though these were simple to make they have a lot of ease and playroom. I mean a lot.
Pattern
Description: Misses' Tops, Skirts, Shorts and Pants (View F).
Pattern Sizing: 6 - 14 (I cut a 14).
Did it look like the pattern photo/drawing on the pattern envelope? Yes.
Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes.
Why did you choose this pattern? Working on my summer wardrobe.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I like that it was super easy I didn't need the instructions at all.
Fabric used? Cotton rayon jersey blend I think, from Moodfabrics.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made. This pattern runs extremely big, I cut a 14 my usual cut of this pattern for pants, the ease measurements put me at a size 6 in these particular pants, but I measured the pattern itself and thought I'd better stick with my regular size 14. They are huge, but I kind of like the fit.
Would you sew this again? Yes, a size or two smaller.
Would you recommend it to others? Yes, highly recommended.

Happy Sewing!
I really like these. I will look for this pattern. Looser pants are cooler on hot, humid days especially when made with lightweight wovens. Very nice.

DeleteI just love your pants! You've inspire me to get my fabric and pattern out and go for it. Thanks for the tip on size - I usually cut a 14 as well, so will go down to a 12 for a start.
ReplyDeleteCoco, I know right, I looked at this pattern for days before I cut it. I am glad I did, and will be making a few more.
