Instructions

I made the pants myself, they are simple elastic waist that I flared at the bottom.
I usually try to embellish patterns more, but with the fabric, I felt it fairly perfect on it's own.
I think the pants color makes it look a bit pajama like, but this will be great with jeans! In fact I think I might want it!

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Clothing

For: Children

Style: Cute, Mod, Funky


Materials

Cotton

What was your inspiration?

I love Patty Young's patterns. They are so easy, the paper makes them easy to manage, and they are just too cute.

What are you most proud of?

I did it all (including making the bias tape) in about four hours and I didn't have to pull any seams! I am getting much faster.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

If you are doing color panels be sure that in your gathering, you have the placement correct so it is centered properly.
