2/2009 #12 Pattern Description
"Elegance" pants Which view and size did you make?
42 Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
No If not, why?
I altered the pattern to have a front zip and standard pockets. Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes If not, why?
- What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I was looking for a more standard pants pattern (like #13, Practicality cropped pants, which comes in a larger size range only). I used the fronts/backs/waistbands/pockets from these pants and changed the style to front zip/standard pockets. Fabric used
Stretch Cotton Poplin Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
After the first Otto pants I made for myself were a bit big, I went a little smaller for these pants, and they are a bit snug. I don't know if it's the style, the fabric or last night's ice cream binge...next time I'll cut a size bigger in this pattern. Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes Any additional comments
