  • Months ago, I tried to find the perfect pants pattern for me, and it didn't go as well as I thought it would. These pants are it folks!! I love the high waist, the wide leg, everything! This isn't a tutorial; more like my journey through the process of sewing this pattern together.

      I've made a few pairs that are full length and they are just as great! Definitely a staple pattern now.

  • @MiddlingSewist
    @MiddlingSewist Před 4 měsíci +2

    That stinks about the waistband! Sewing it upside down would remove the seam allowance on the larger curve that would make the waistband longer at the seamline where it attached to the pants, and cutting it on a different grainline could affect how much it could stretch to fit the pants, but I don't know if thats enough to short you a few inches. So frustrating, but I'm so happy you could pivot and make it work! If you really want to try to sus out the issue so you could use the waistband in the future, it may be worth measuring the pants at the waist seamline, minus the darts and pants seam allowances, and then measure the lower seamline of the waistband minus allowances to see if the actual pattern matches up. That would clear up if it was a cutting/sewing error vs. a pattern error. But this video convinced me to go download this pattern, so thank you!

    • @KatieMakesStuff
      @KatieMakesStuff  Před 4 měsíci

      I would say the most difficult part for me (other than the waistband not working) was figuring out the fly. Fortunately, it's a small area that I could easily pick out and redo in a short amount of time. Go for it and good luck!!

    The pants look so great! I'm so glad to see you making them because I wanted to make them for quite some time now. I've cut the fabric already but didn't get around to sewing them 😅
    I have a tip for you which might be helpful when using PDF Patterns. On most of them, the sizes are saved in layers and you can turn off the ones you don't need.
    All Peppermint patterns I've used have this option. Hope this helps on your future projects!

    This is one of my favorite pant patterns. Completely confused as to what happened with the waistband since I use this curved waistband for my other pant patterns. Whichever way, nice job! They look absolutely fabulous on you.

    • @KatieMakesStuff
      @KatieMakesStuff  Před 4 měsíci

      I'm positive that the waistband is my fault. I probably missed an instruction or cut the wrong size or sewed the wrong allowance. But straight waistbands work fine for me so I'm happy going with that. Glad to hear it's a favorite; I can totally see why!

    I like the length but it kinda defeats the purpose of the fleece lining. Especially with the open legs. I know it's kinda a wearable mockup. I bought fleece capris once and I always had to wear them with leggings. They were to hot for warm weather.

    • @KatieMakesStuff
      @KatieMakesStuff  Před 4 měsíci +1

      So I tested them outside in chilly weather for about an hour and they were surprisingly warm. Maybe if it was windier they wouldn't have worked, but I was really happy that I didn't freeze from the knees down. And that's with wearing flats and no socks. Two thumbs up for me!
