A little late in posting, but definitely finished by the end of November! I made these high waisted trousers for daughter No2 from BurdaStyle Magazine, March 2011. I made a pair in October for Daughter No1 & they were much coveted, so what was I to do? The style is #119 and needed only a little alteration. The welt pockets would be more than a little tricky for a novice sewist, but when complete they do look good! Daughter No2 loves clothes that stand out from the crowd, & these trousers definitely fit that bill! One thing – the houndstooth is pretty small which makes photographs tricky. Strobing alert!

She looks great. I am especially intrigued by the fingerless mitts though. Where did they come from?

As always Anne, I am in awe of your expertise and attention to detail. I have just done my second pair of double welt pockets and I have a way to go before I will be happy with the finished product.
PS- Your girls are very lucky!
