evlcuddlz 11/29/04That looks so professional! I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between your pants and RTW pants.

Athelas 11/29/04Great job! Yes, very professional results!
* * *
smvite 11/29/04Very, Very nice - great job!
* * *
joan 11/29/04Great job! Isn't it nice when DH is pleased? I think I'm more pleased with his affirmation more than anyone else.
* * *
Leslie in Austin 11/29/04Fantastic, Sandra!! Those look so RTW and seem to fit him really well.
* * *
els 11/29/04Wow great looking pants, I bet he will never want to wear a RTW one, now he is spoiled with a tailor made pair of pants.
* * *
Levone 11/29/04Great looking pants Sandra....great fit and very professional looking.
* * *
Lizzy 11/29/04Wow, Sandra, these pants are terrific - those back pockets look so professional! Congratulations
* * *
kirianth 11/30/04I'm really impressed! I would've said those *were* RTW. The fit is really nice too. Definitely worth the extra time spent making it.
* * *
KathleenS 11/30/04I love that about KwikSew - you can not understand what the instructions are leading up to, but follow them blindly and it turns out brilliantly. You did a great job!
* * *
Karla Kizer 11/30/04Sandra, I can certainly see why he likes them. They look great. And I agree with you about KS' instructions. I had the same "wow" reaction when I tried another of their patterns for men's pants. KS has a way of making me feel very accomplished. I wonder why the Big 4 (or 3 or 2 - what are we down to now? ) can't do as well. Thanks for posting the great pic; it makes me want to sew up some more pants for my DH, too.

cindyann 11/30/04Very, very nice!! Great work!
* * *
meli88a 11/30/04very nice pants! you've done an excellent job.
* * *
Runrover 11/30/04Sandra: these pants look great! Your DH must be so happy and proud. You did an excellent job.
* * *
Debbie Cook 11/30/04Sandra, the pants look fantastic!! Very professional and no one would ever know these were your first "real" pants for men. Great job!
* * *
Stefanie 11/30/04Those are great! I know some of these are in my future (or rather DHs).
* * *
kbrock 11/30/04Well done Sandra! Your DH is certainly a good sport, even giving us a rear view. Now you'll have to make all his pants... RTW won't be good enough anymore!
* * *
lilhoney57 11/30/04They look great!!!
* * *
Skymom 11/30/04Impressive--they look absolutely perfect. It's so great that you can make your DH a really well-fitting pair of pants. Of course, he seems to have an actual waist (unlike my DH), and that helps a lot!
* * *
penelope 11/30/04Sandra, Very impressive. I'll bet lots of sewists will be inspired to try a similar project, based on your amazing results.
* * *
Linda E. 11/30/04Sandra, great looking pants for DH I can see he will never wear RTW again. Can I send you My DH to you make him some it is warmer down there than here. My DH needs better fitting pants than he has been wearing.
* * *
Dot 11/30/04Wow, Sandra! Your hubby is a very lucky man. The pants look just wonderful. You did great, girl!!!
* * *
SandraB 11/30/04Thank you everyone. You make me feel so good with your kind comments. Linda E., send him on over. Skymom, I can empathise. My mom asked me to make a pair of these for my dad. His waist (or waist area) is 47! I think I have my work cut out for me.
* * *
Schnauzer 11/30/04Very nice Sandra. Well done!
* * *
candyo 11/30/04Amazing!!!!
* * *
PattiK 12/3/04Great pants, I am in awe!
* * *
carolyntoo 12/12/04I add my accolades and throw roses at your feet. You have great talent.

knitlitcamper 4/8/09I just found this pattern today at a thrift store for .15 cents! Great Review!
