This site seems very helpful. I stumbled on the site by accident. |

Date: 10/9/12 7:05 AM I have made the pants pattern for my sister. I used a stretch denim and omitted the front zip to reduce bulk as she needs a low seat belt in her wheelchair. It is a great pattern and the dart in the back side seam is great for people mostly sitting. |
