Heatherrique 12/31/08Ruthie, thanks for your timely review! Nice style and cut! Would love to see you model your new pants!

Sewlovelier 12/31/08Maybe I should try BWOF pants. It sounds like I have the same problem you do with some of the Big 4. Yours look great!

Kisakim 12/31/08I sewed this trousers too ( http://eleeli.blogspot.com/2008/12/hose-burda-102008132.html#links ). The fit form is excellent and the trousers is very fast sewn. Many my acquaintance have the trousers also made with same success. The passform is really ingenious. Sorry, my English is terrible :-(

RuthieK 12/31/08Kisakim you pants look great! Thanks for the link :-)

Christas 12/31/08Yea!!! Did you hear cheering from Oklahoma, USA? My daughter (Meggie LuLu) and I were just talking about you and hoping that you would complete the fourth item for your wardrobe. You did a wonderful job and we love it! These pants are sooo cute!

RuthieK 12/31/08Awww thanks Christas and Meggie LuLu, I had planned more then 4 items, but was so happy I could at least meet the minimum.

DianeAnnie 1/1/09they look good on the hanger. I would like to see them worn and all sides

yorkshire lass 1/6/09Ruth, these are lovely. Can't wait to see them on. Since you are wondering, I've made four different trouser patterns from BWOF and I did the exact same alterations to all of them, and got the exact same good fit... so yeah, I say you are on to a winner with both this pattern and possibly future ones too. Well done.

Vonnevo 1/9/09Great news and pants, Ruthie!! I have tried other pant patterns too and none fit as well as Burda. I too need the short front and longer back crotch length.
* * *
Ody 1/9/09Ruthie, Great sales job! You have me convinced and now I just have to find a copy of the magazine to get one for me. I am intrigued and I do want to see the pants on you. Great review!

Geordie Girl 1/10/09Great trousers Ruthie. I too am a Burda trouser fan. The fit and cut is so much betterthan Simplicity.
