fiddlestick chic said... Thanks for the great review.
I am back to sewing after taking many years off and am looking for some great patterns.
I somehow found the CJ line of patterns and have ordered some but was reluctant to try slacks.
This review helped me make the decision to order this pattern.
I very much love the idea of the waist treatment you did as I do not like a lot of extra fabric at my waist so I will try to learn how to get some darts in there for a smooth look as you did.
I am a petite person ( size 2-4 RTW) and am having a very difficult time finding classy clothing that doesn't cost me a huge amount of $$.
I think I am purchasing the right line of patterns to start re doing my wardrobe .
Now,,,,to find the right fabrics!!! 3/31/09 11:27 PM
Cultured Purl said... Hi Nancy
Just wondering if you still making these pants( they look so darn good on you!) I am trying this pattern again , I was wondering if I should simply try another pattern, am wrestling w/ myself about the newer larger legs OR sticking w/ something that works
need new pants BADLY, would love your input!
Good sewing 5/14/11 8:04 PM
Michele Lommasson said... You have written a fabulous review. I love the pants and the jacket, and am very encouraged to try Christine Jonson's patterns. I have to say that I actually thought to myself, "how remarkable that she found a beautiful commercial jacket that matches so perfectly." Silly me, this is a sewing site, but I can be excused for thinking it because your work is so professional. 1/20/12 9:54 AM
