What a labor of love!
This is the first time that I have ever gotten seriously discouraged with anything that I’ve made.
(not that I’ve made a whole closet full of garments lol)
This is how you all voted:
So I had to make Burda 6981- View B.
The fabric is a cotton twill from Fabric Mart

I changed the zipper to a white one. |
I personally wanted to do the one with the ankle zips but, whatever lol
This was my first time making pants of any type so I was more than a bit nervous.
The instructions for the fly-front zipper were CONFUSING! lol So I had to use a video tutorial from threads magazine to figure out how to do it and I got through it.
Can you tell my excitement?? lol
Yea, I made a lot of mistakes.
But I learned a lot at the same time.
Can we talk about this completely ACCIDENTAL pattern matching (or almost matching if you want to get technical lol)
I could go on and on about the craziness I went through with these but I’m just going to stop and say that I love them lol
They’re so very unique and can be dressed up or down.
I’m sure I’ll get plenty of wear out of them 🙂
I have plenty more woes and excitements and PICTURES on my blog 🙂
