Wow; you did an excellent job. I must go to your blog and read the fine details. I've had this pattern in my stash, eventually i'll get around to it. As always, your reviews are absolutely fabulous.

I have been trying to get one of the other Claire Shaeffer pants patterns, but my local Fabric store never has it. Maybe I will try this one. Thanks for all the details on your blog.
