CTBarb said... Great fitting pants. And great review. Okay, I'll bite, I have never heard of "pressing out the bias," but my linens always bag. Please tell me!! 6/5/12 9:41 AM
nicegirl said... Nice job on these pants! That back view shows what a great fit you have. The hidden pocket is so clever. 6/5/12 10:14 AM
Sanibelle said... I am so impressed with the fit. (And achieving it with an elastic waist!) They look fabulous. Have a wonderful time in Barcelona. 6/5/12 10:19 AM
Sigrid. said... Great fit Clare, they look very good. The pocket is a nice detail. 6/5/12 11:00 AM
Clareew said... CTBarb, I couldn't find the link to the Seat Stretch Prevention so I have edited the review include a photo from the S Betzina book. 6/5/12 11:02 AM

allycovey said... I love the pants and the review, (oh and i love the background ;) 6/5/12 1:25 PM
quathy said... Nice work, and I love your pocket and other changes. Thanks for the tip about pressing out the bias - I've never heard of that before, and I'm getting ready to make my first linen pants. This will be very helpful! 6/5/12 2:01 PM
Sherril Miller said... That's a really nice fit you've got in this pattern. It's a great idea to make it over and over again! 6/5/12 2:02 PM
seamsmith1 said... I have put in a thigh high side pocket in a "bound buttonhole" opening. I have thought of using an invisible zipper, but didn't think that it could be sewn into a slit in the fabric instead of a seam. Did you cut a horizontal seam on the pants leg? 6/5/12 7:20 PM
Fictionfan said... Great fit! Nice looking pants and such a clever pocket. Great thing to have when traveling! I forgot about that SB trick. Thanks for the reminder, thanks for the review. 6/5/12 8:03 PM
SquishSews said... Ditto on all the kudos! Excellent explanations, and my goal is to learn to do all kinds of secret pockets, so your pants are particularly appealing to me. 6/5/12 9:10 PM
Terri A said... Very nice fitting pants! 6/22/12 10:11 PM
Clareew said... Masd, there is a seam there. It shows better on different version - I will upload a photo later for you to see it better. 6/30/12 3:47 PM
Sew Whatever said... I seem to need to sign in to see the photos. I would love to see them. Especially the difference that pressing out the bias makes. 7/1/12 5:01 PM
Clareew said... I have mended the photo links, please let me know if there are any more problems. 7/2/12 6:47 AM
