Pattern Name/Number 5539
Pattern Description Pull-on pants with leg width variations, and one waist/yoke variation.
Which view and size did you make? View D, straight leg, separate waistband piece
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes
If not, why? Yes, except I didn't stitch down the front/back center leg pleats - not my style.
Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes
If not, why? -
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? These are pull-on pants without a ton of excessive fullness at the waist, even on me, even though I have much larger hips than waist.
Fabric used Stretch twill
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend Nothing except to alter to fit, and to not stitch down the center front/back leg crease. [My grandma ALWAYS wore that style, and hence I just can't do it for me! LOL]
Would you sew this pattern again? Yes
Would you recommend this pattern to others? Yes
Any additional comments Great, simple, pull-on pants.
