I got this pattern a while a go while i was on my search for a really great pair of pants. I really really love this pattern and even though mymeasurements aren’t 5″3 I fit into them with minimal adjustments. I love this style and they are such comfy pants to wear!
The fabric is just plyester blend suiting from spotlight and din’t cost must at all. yay!
(sorry I am re-doing the hem still so it’s not quite finished but you get the idea)
Allison–
p.s I got sewing machine oil on them!! anyone know what’s best for getting it out? eep!
I alos found a new “vintage” sewing machine!!
Those pants are a really, really nice fit!
I have a similar pair of pants, similar style, similar fabric. I used a late 1960s pattern. Yours look better than mine though, because mine had a tapered leg that I tried to untaper. I also just scored a vintage sewing machine – 1974 Kenmore 1813 Zig Zag for $25! Yay for old used things.
Beautiful pants!
definately yay for old used things!
Those pants are amazing. 😀 They look so well tailored! And comfy!
Those pants look really great! They are very flattering- I like the back darts.
Use Lestoil cleaner on all oil spots… just pour it right on the fabric and wash on cold
Try patting a little baby powder on the oil stains and steam iron on the other side. Should work!
Dawn dish washing soap is great on oil stains. I use it all the time. Gets out all kinds of fix it type oils the guys get into.
thank you !! i've got a sophisticated form of stain attack now! cheers!
