| Sew4Fun | 6/22/09 | Thanks for this review. I can't believe your good timing. I have this pattern out on my cutting table atm and I came to the computer to look for reviews and here yours is, posted only minutes ago. Talk about timing. :) Anyway, great pants. |

| Deepika | 6/22/09 | Talk about a helpful review. This is indeed one! You really did work hard on making this pattern fit you like a dream. The pants look awesome! I can only wait for you to pop into my office every two days with a new pair :) Congrats on a perfect pants pattern. |

| Heidi Ho | 6/22/09 | Those pants look great on you. They really fit nicely and I don't think the look too tight at all. They just show off you nice shape!!! |

| cabinbaby | 6/23/09 | I think they look great too. Even the ones you think look too tight. |

| Annette1 | 6/23/09 | What a great review, very thorough! I'm especially interested in seeing these made up, because Christa recently bought this pattern for me, and I can't wait to get it! Yours have turned out so nicely, I hope mine will be half as flattering. :o) (I don't think they look too tight in the back, by the way.) |

| MLoyet | 6/23/09 | Thanks for the great review! I have been struggling with pants myself, and did a similar alteration to get rid of the bunching in the back. It worked pretty well, but I think I need to go back and make a larger fold! |

| Sallygirl | 6/23/09 | Great review, showing how you dealt with each thing, which is really helpful to me in learning to fit properly. Your jeans look perfect, even in the butt. :o) |

| donna mel | 6/23/09 | thanks so much for the positive comments! i find writing the review harder than sewing the garment, so i REALLY appreciate it. i'm wearing the pants today, for the first time, and they are so comfortable. oprah did a show yesterday on 'fitting pants' and apparently a wider waistband is more flattering to the (thicker) waist...so i think i'll go for a 3" one next time. |

| Rhonda Noah | 6/27/09 | Great pants, and a great review. They look great on you, so working on the fit paid off! I bought this pattern, but haven't given it a try yet. You've inspired me though, to move it up on my must sew list. |

| BaysicKnits | 2/18/10 | Your pants look fantastic. I'm adding this pattern to my wish list. Thanks for the tips too. I think my shape is similar to yours so I will know what to take a close look at for fitting. |

| Cal W | 2/22/10 | Great review - I liked your idea on the waistband, and the lighter weight fabric for facing. |
