Materials:
Fabric:
- twill (EOS) and broadcloth (Joann) for pocketing
- Interfacing – Fusi-knit and Fine Weft Bias tape and buttons (Joann)
- Thread – all purpose thread + embroidery thread for topstitching and buttonholes
- Topstitching was done with doubled embroidery thread
- Buttonholes – with embroidery thread, corded
- Lower edge of waistband – bound with bias tape Back double-welt pockets - I used my own technique that is a compilation of different techniques I have tried. I’ll be posting a tutorial some time soon.
Conclusion: It was a lot of work to draft, fix muslins, and then make… But I am so happy how this pant turned out!

Fabulous outfits! Well worth the effort.
Wow. You are very talented! your garments are so well tailored. very inspiring! I read in your post that you took classes in chicago at ews. what did you think? i am taking at vogue fabric presently but thinking of trying something new. cindy
Colour by number,
I am unfamiliar with the Vogue classes. The EWS are good but it takes a lot of time. I was one of the fastest moving through the program and still for 7 months I only managed to cover pockets, trouser drafting and tailoring, and straight and flared skirt drafting. However, if you are interested in learning to draft and to tailor - it is THE Place
I'm so inspired by the garments you sew! You always seem to achieve a modern fit, which I find to be the most challenging aspect of sewing! Your sailor pants are truly fabulous.
