Pattern Description:
Sem-fitted tapered pants
Pattern Sizing:
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes, with modifications!
Were the instructions easy to follow?
This is a McCall's Easy pattern with just a few pieces and simple instructions.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I like the side inserts. The insert is a few inches wide and runs down the leg. It is handy for adding contrast fabric and also for the extra leeway to adjust the pattern to fit.
Fabric Used:
Medium weight denim with a touch of stretch from JoAnns Fabrics
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I cut out the size 10 and basted it with 5/8 seams (with muslin fabric). It was too small, so I made the seams all 1/4. That made for a perfect fit--better I think than if I had used the size 12. To save fabric, I also had cut the muslin pieces off at shorts length and I liked that so much in my prototype that I used it for the denim. I live in Florida so we wear a lot of shorts.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I will sew it again-lots of possibilities for different fabrics and pants lengths. I really like this pattern!

i would never consider this pattern from the envelope photo, but it looks great in all your versions. I'm adding it to my wish list. Thanks!
