Wow Debbie - another great project. Love the colors and the great details on this pair of pants. The fringed hem is fantastic. What more can I say?? WINNER - WINNER - WINNER.

Love these! Next time you make pants there may be a bumble bee with a fluffy tummy perched above your sewing machine. Just leave her alone, she wont hurt you and is going to come home to me with all she's learned.

Ohmygosh, I love the fringed hem(s)! Thanks for the review, it is really great, as always! I especially appreciate all the photos & construction details. I particularly want to thank you for your method of using wide elastic as the interfacing in the waistband. That's my very favorite treatment & your method looks better than the one I've tried before. (You've certainly earned those 4 stars!)

Debbie, you write the most helpful reviews! This one itself is like a book. Your pants look great. Actually the whole outfit does. Love the color and the fringe detail.

Great job, Debbie! On the pants and the review. Many thanks for the elastic-in-the-waistband tip. As another "fluffer", I think this will work great for me

Debbie - these fit great, love the pocket details!!!! and the waistband treatment!!!! and the fringe accent on the hem!!!! What an inspiration!!! Thanks! PS - just looked at the pattern photo - your pair is much nicer!!! The model has such a baggy crotch, awful fit. Congrats on your great looking pair!

Wow, Debbie, you never cease to amaze me! Your pants look *fantastic*!!! The fringe is so very cool- you can bet I'm gonna steal that idea, and the waistband treatment is a brilliant idea-your instructions and photos are great. Thank you for taking the time to do such detailed, information-packed reviews! Oh-and I love the contrast fabric for the pockets/fly guard!

Thanks for giving such a detailed review-- your tutorial with photos on the waistband treatment is so helpful! Great pants, and love the fringed hem and contrast fabric details.

Very enjoyable review, Debbie! I can't believe I'd never heard of a "half welt" pocket before...wish I could see the pattern to really understand what's happening there. The fringe detail and added fringe to adjust length is a very cool fix...so unique and cute. Great job!

Another great job, Debbie, and another great review. Love your fringes also. I have to get back to my pants project, which was put on hold for a touch. You certainly have it figured out!

Cute pants, Debbie. I like the hem detail a lot. I'd like to see a pic of the waistband/pockets on you. I know if anythings works on you--it'd probably work on me too. I love your reviews and almost missed this one. Yikes!

Debbie you did a fantastic job on these pants. They fit you to a "T". I love your tutorials, too.

Terrific review and pants. Thanks. I looked at these pants and wondered, after reading the instructions just how to do these pockets!
