I sewed a pair of these for my 8 year old dd last year. I added a yoga waist (cotton/lycra tube) instead of following their instructions. They were cute & dd loved them, I don't think I have any pictures and they were ruined in a painting incident.

Anyway, I'm sewing a pair right now for my younger, 5.5 year old dd. I'm making a 110 with about 3/4" added length for hem allowance. These are supposed to fit slim, but they are baggy on her & loose in the waist. I'm fussing with modifying the pattern so I can make her several pairs. I'll post pictures of this pair. Hopefully I'll be able to adjust the pattern to make her other pairs that will fit better.

Size 110 made without seam allowances so she would have a pair of "skinny jeans" like her big sister

Made the same exact way. The girls are the same height but blondie is about 5 pounds heavier. It's a great pair of pants and super easy to sew. I like the flat, front yoke.

made this in 110cm with no SA but with non stretch denim, it fits her just a bit pita to pull on so next time i;d make it with stretch denim or cord. but a very nice skinny jeans pattern. the rise however is a bit too short for my liking (but i dont like my dd to wear hipsters at her age) so i might add 1" to the rise if i am going to sew it again.

Neat Beat pants from 6/09

My daughter didn't want any pants with buttons, so this pattern was a great alternative.
