Yes

If not, why?

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?

I love the details of the pattern, but I didn't care for the pattern order of instructions.

Fabric used

medium-heavy weight cotton

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend

Rather than turning under the pockets, I lined them. I also switched the order of sewing the seams. I sewed the side seams first so that it would be easier to topstitch. I sewed up the inseam as the final seam step.

Would you sew this pattern again?

Yes

Would you recommend this pattern to others?

Yes

Any additional comments

This is the same basic pattern as a few of the items in this issue. Before you trace all of them, check the pieces against the others. The main differences is the length and pockets. I am making these pants as long shorts next!
