Description

This unusually coloured jeans had been in my stash for a year. Now, I just decided to take the lessons learnt from all the trousers I made over the past year, and just come up with something. I used no 'jeans-style' stitching this time, just single seams and build up the pockets and waist band with strips of fabric to add a different touch to this pair of jeans. It has single bound back pockets as well. I'm pretty happy with the result, although I think my usual jeans features (lots of flat felled seams) would have made it more durable. In the first picture, I wear the trousers with my lace shirt and the jacket I made a while back. I really love that 'suit'.

Materials

jeans, bais tape, zipper, trouser hooks, thread

    sewing summer clothes.

    The back pocket is perfectly well sewn. You look great in high waist pants.

    stoked about flickr up for swap!

    Oh FAB FAB FAB! I love contrast between the casualness of the denim and the more dressy detail of your perfect single-bound pocket.
