Description

I have wanted to make the sailor pants since last year...Do you like this sort of pants? Do you think you could sew this without sewing instruction?(I don't have one but it quite similar to new Kasia skirt) I uploaded the pattern. With these pattern pieces, you can converse any shorts/pants that has no pleat in the front into sailor pants. I tried the Nichola, and it went great!

Materials

very stretchy cotton mix lycra, perhaps the worst choice of all.

Catching up on unfinished projects

Very cute. Another amazing creation, JJ. I love the leather lacing in the back. I'd love a pattern or how-to for this.

way too busy for loads of sewing

I'm not 100% sure I would like this sailor closure for myself, but I find myself once again in awe of your skills. It looks just perfect and I love the contrast trim on the inside.

Enjoying the Autumn weather

You are so very clever. I love the details - the top stitching, the leather lacing, the contrasting trim.

These are adorable and you did a really great job. I've been looking for a good quasi authentic sailor pants pattern for a while because I've lacked the gumption to do one myself and I couldn't quite wrap my head around the whole button front idea. So thanks so much. Love the lace up back too. You got skills girl !!!
