Shorts/Trouser pattern with welt rear pockets and zippered trouser fly.
Pattern Sizing:
Sized for curvy girls with hips.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Pattern is well written and put together. If you're a beginner, the detailed instructions may be insufficient, especially for the fly. But any intermediate sewer will find the instructions easy to follow.
Fabric Used:
I've made them in wool and velveteen.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made the trousers with a major change to the leg style - I removed the fit and flair and made them straight leg instead.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Oh yes. I've made three now!
Conclusion:
I've made these three times now and they're a great staple in my wardrobe.
