Good for you! They look like they fit great. I just drafted a pair of high-waisted pants (the muslin version is pants, but the real ones are going to be shorts) so I feel like we are both sharing a similar experience haha.Alison Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01313136002892095692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-55868170035756731942013-02-18T16:17:57.133-08:002013-02-18T16:17:57.133-08:00Very flattering!

Can't wait to see how you solved the problems. I am surprised you have had so many fitting challenges - you've got such a lovely figure. My Fearless February challenge is also pants - and I've had two muslim fizzles already (they are on my blog, sarahlizsewstyle.blogspot.com) With two piece bands, I tend to ignore a lot of the instructions - I pay attention to the front and then add extra to the back and chop that off when all is ready to go. I like two piece bands because if you gain weight you can just alter the back band. Men's tailored trousers are like that. <br />Sarah Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17566072246120028926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-90736008772651741162013-02-18T11:54:49.320-08:002013-02-18T11:54:49.320-08:00Great pants!

If you have pants that fit so well use them for all future projects, just reshape the legs for variety, especially if you don't want/need pockets and other design details. Well done.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529416439720810403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-32747091170492145422013-02-18T09:57:15.913-08:002013-02-18T09:57:15.913-08:00Nice pants!

I can't wait 'til tomorrow to hear about the changes.<br />I made Burda 7447 not too long ago, they were my first and only pair of pants I ever made, so I learned a LOT from them. A video that helped me immensely was :http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=NGVnQxyj6FI <br />I agree with you about the two piece waist band. I remember they gave me a headache. Next time around I'll just cut it in one piece.<br />Burda 7447 has the best pockets I ever had in a pair of trousers.Florenciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02196405966145632477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-76294832645391813712013-02-18T05:25:14.864-08:002013-02-18T05:25:14.864-08:00Very nice!!!Very nice!!!Juanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12589478653210409508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699537904435529619.post-6052468715793633582013-02-18T05:12:56.248-08:002013-02-18T05:12:56.248-08:00Great fit and agree you should make several of the...Great fit and agree you should make several of them.
