solosmocker 1/10/09Nice pants.

Ody 1/10/09Yes! I will definitely have to run down this great pants pattern. Great job!
* * *
Kay Y 1/10/09I can see why you plan to make more of these! They really look good.

cabinbaby 1/10/09That's a great pair of pants!! The wrinkling on the back really isn't that bad. I'm sure a small alteration will take care of that.

VelmaRooster 1/10/09I always look forward to reading your reviews and your blog. I have learned a lot from you. These pants look really nice on you. Love the fabric! What a wardrobe builder!

Elona 1/10/09Great looking pants! The rear view is good as it is, but if you wanted to refine it a little, I should think the smallest "Debbie's Fish Eye Dart" back there would do the job. Here's the link: http://www.cedesign.com/familyphotos/sewing/info/KK_fisheye_dart/index.html

RuthieK 1/10/09Ooh thanks I will have to try that. If I am going to make 10 pairs of these pants and live in them all winter they might as well look as nice as possible!
* * *
MaryLynn in Long Beach 1/10/09Wonderful work, Ruthie. Have you lost weight? Looks like it.
* * *
RuthieK 1/10/09MaryLynn I have lost weight since last year, but I gained a bit back moving house in November and eating out in December BUT I am back at WW now.

Allie in Hong Kong 1/10/09These look like a great fit to me - you just can't beat BWOF pants.
* * *
crisford 1/11/09They do look great on you. And that is amazing you didn't have to tweak the pattern at all! What else could you ask for?
* * *
Peggym 1/11/09 I think you need Ann Rowleys adjustment for a flat seat. http://www.flickr.com/photos/7370831@N07/424123223 I note you say you don't have a flat seat but this adjustment would get rid of the fold at the back. You have made a lovely job
* * *
KateS 1/13/09Woo-hoo your description sounds like me to a tee (well endowed bottom!) - I am definately going to try this pattern- I haven't sewed BWOF pants at all but your review makes me think it might be possible! Very informative. Great job on the pants too!! :)
