Date: 10/5/12 7:36 AM Not sure where to post this, so I thought I'd try the super creatives first...
I'd like to make myself a couple pairs of stretch schooling tights, and I've looked at Suitability and Jean Hardy patterns. Both show breech patterns with fly fronts, etc, but I'd like a simpler pull-on stretch design similar to the Irideon RTW line. I know I could probably copy the one I have, if it comes down to it, but I was hoping to find a pattern with the construction steps spelled out. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! ------ My Years of Sewing Fearlessly

Also, Lola Gentry has a pattern for tight-fitting breeches with no waistband and side and ankle zippers which could be eliminated with stretch fabric.
Good luck! |

Date: 10/5/12 9:25 PM Thank you! Neither company showed up in my search, so this helped a lot. In the end, I ordered the dressage breech pattern from Lola Gentry...I haven't found a good-fitting pair of breeches ever, so I think they might be worth trying to custom fit. I might get some good stretchy denim to use as the muslin trial.
