Pattern Description:
MISSES' JEANS: Fitted, tapered or straight-legged jeans (below waist) have shaped waistband with hook/eye closure, carriers, front/back pockets, back yokes, and binding for front fly zipper closing. Topstitching and narrow hem.
Pattern Sizing:Combinations: AAX(4-6-8-10), C5(10-12-14-16-18) I used a size 12
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow?Yes, they were very clear and easy to follow.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved that it fit right out of the envelope with very few adjustments.
Fabric Used: Damask Denim from Moods Fabrics.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I'm going to narrow the legs from the knee down about a quarter of an inch on both sides. My daughter wants a more fitted leg.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I'm going to make her a red pair soon. Yes I would recommend this pattern. It's made for a more curvy figure. Megan usually has problems with the waist being way to loose at the back and often to low.
Conclusion: Great pattern can't wait to try it again.
