Fabulous! Is the fabric 1 way or 2 way stretch? if so, does it stretch warp or weft? im curious because it almost looks like a faux snake skin leather. love them on you. youre rockin the look. i want to make a gold sequin version but the fabric isnt very stretchy.

Did you find the fitting easy? The pants look great! You are courageous!! The pants look like a good fit.

I veered from the pattern omitting the front center seam - this was mainly to accommodate the fabric I chose, which would not have worked with a front center seam! The pattern also fit a bit looser, which is nice for trousers, but not metallic snakeskin (ha!), so I ended up fitting them a bit closer to the body. But the overall pattern fit great, and was a fantastic starting off point! I loved how Sandra taught measuring for your body and adjusting the pattern accordingly!

Thanks Una!! I am still not sure if I have enough moxy to wear them in public, but I am thinking NYE or Salsa dancing may be the ticket :)
