Karla Kizer said... I adapted this pattern to make scrub pants for my daughter, lengthening and slightly flaring the leg. I had to make some alterations to the crotch length, but the result is a great-fitting pattern, one that I have used over and over. Your version is MUCH more stylish than scrub pants. Maybe I'll revisit that pattern...Thanks for the inspiration. 5/11/04 8:45 PM

valerie sews said... What a cute pair of pants. Looking at the photo I didn't realise they were gathered. How did you do them? 5/12/04 5:54 AM
SewingSusan said... Thanks for the compliments. :). I did use a casing in this instance 'stitched in the ditch' to keep the elastic from rolling. 5/12/04 6:41 AM
Deepika said... Susan, love those pants. Is this a cotton/lycra woven or a knit? 5/12/04 7:09 AM
PVA said... What a neat pair of pants, screaming Summer! A very neat job -- I would'nt ever have guessed that waistband was a pull-up elastic. Back to the drawing board for me! Another Kwick Sew for me to check out! Thanks for the great review! 5/12/04 6:03 PM

mClones said... Really nice fit. With this heat here in NY right now, I just want to cut the bottoms off my jeans - just to where those capris of yours end. 5/12/04 8:38 PM
JeanetteE said... Nice capri's. What a wonderful looking waistband! What width elastic did you use, 3/4 inch? Non- roll? Details, details. Thanks for reviewing these. They are really great! 5/15/04 12:58 PM
