I had great success with the Saguaro pants, which considering my age and size made me very happy. Made them in your washed linen viscose and even got compliments from strangers for them!
Thanks for sharing!! They look superb!
Love your flowers, love your patterns and your videos bring me much joy! Thank you.
So happy to hear that!
I appreciate you mentioning the best fabrics to use for pants.
Kristen, great job, I now have several “wanna make” patterns in the cue! And thank you so much for sitting in your garden, it is so nice to see some greenery.😊
You are so welcome!
I also love your backdrops!! My daughter lives in Melbourne (I’m in the US) so love seeing your climate because that’s where she is!! I want you to know you are one of my sewing gurus. I love your vlogs and your suggestions have been inspirational. Keep up the great videos!!!
Love the Winslow Colottes, hope to make these up soon, so many lovely pant patterns 🪡🧵💕
Thanks Deb x
So many good recommendations. I couldn't keep up! :)
Awesome!!
Hi Kirsten, I love the Simplicity pattern too, the shorts and pants are so smart and comfortable - Laura pants and the Suzy pants from Tessuti too, easy, smart and comfortable. Thank you for this round up - I will be cutting out the Barry pants soon.
I love the Suzy pants too Angela! I dont think they are making that pattern anymore :(
only been sewing since march 2023 and knew to it all but I am on my second pair of Margot pants by Tessuti fabrics and I love them. I have added pockets to my second pair just to smarten them up a bit.
Oh I need to check them out!!
Great collection of pants!!!
Glad you like them!
I have also made the Style Arc Talia Pants. Bit of a tailored look but comfy with the back elastic. Thank-you for this.
I have 2 shirt dress patterns but haven’t made them yet so looking forward to your episode, Love your Wedding outfit, those shoes!!!!
Yay! Thank you!
Thanks so much, I love the Pattern emporium Urban Pants and Style arc Barb Pant
I need to try the Barbs!
Thanks Kristen, I’ve been waiting on a pants pattern .I love the elastic waist for obvious reasons, especially after Xmas festivity’s,and holidays 😉
Oh yes, gotta love a comfy pant!
I like the Ethel pants too
I just made a pair of Pietra shorts in a light weight denim. They are fabulous! I've just cut out a pair in linen ready to sew up! I recently made the PE Vacation Vibes ina crepe & they are fabulous as well!
Thanks Terri! They sound great!
So many nice looking pants patterns there. I've definitely got a pair of pants on my radar to make in the near future. I've got TAL Almost Long or Tessuti Nina pants at the top of my list.
Go for it!
thank you for patterns dedicated to pants!
Glad you like them!
You introduced me to Pattern Emporium and I love the vacation pants. Have made 3 pairs
They are fabulous!!
For those who prefer Big 4 patterns my TNT for wide leg elastic waist pants is McCalls 7131. I’ve made 2 pairs. They look like a skirt. My other fave is vogue 8499 which are hilariously baggy but oh so comfy and also hide a lot of sins😊
I love Love Notions Duet pants pattern. I have made 5 pair.
That is awesome!
I made a very nice fitting pair of the sew to grow culottes in a gorgeous art gallery rayon last summer and plan to make more for this spring/summer. Quite quick to make too.
Oh they sound amazing!!
Great video, thank you 😊
You’re welcome 😊
I love all the options of elastic waist pants! Comfort wins for me! I love my SewHouse7 free range slacks. I think I have made them 6 times.
I have also made them in stretch wovens and ponte. I have tried the Paper Theory Miller trousers and I think they have potential. I think your suggestion of viscose and viscose blends will make them a winner. The Petra pants were nice but I like other patterns better. I loved the Palisades but I have sized out of the pattern. The Arden pants have minimal ease. You can tell the way Helen models them that she is comfortable with less ease. I would recommend the Arden pants for beginners though. Her instructions are great. I have made the Muna and Broad Birchgroves and they were a success. I feel like every time I try a new pants pattern, I always return to my Free Range Slacks pattern. There are just so many features I love about them: side panels do some kind of magic with the fit and appearance, deep pockets in a perfect location, roomy without feeling oversized, 2 options in the pattern, neat waistband finish, great instructions. Check finished measurements on the pattern to get a good fit.
I agree Janet, you've absolutely hit the nail on the head with everything here! The Free range always win for me too!
I have only made the wide leg version. The side panels with the super deep pockets are great. I think those side panels make them flattering and not all gathered waist baggy trousers look flattering. Sometimes they get too bunchy. I have made severals pairs and they looked best in a linen, flax, viscose blend, you need a not too floppy linen-viscose mix or they slap about your legs when you walk. The worst pair were made up in a cotton. They look a bit silly on me and I only wear those at home.
Another great pant is the Love Notions Allegro (there are two skirts in the pattern as well!) They have been my go to for several years, but I will be checking some of your recommendations as well!
Thanks for sharing!!
Hi Kristen, it last week or so I've made two elastic waisted pants for winter out of active fleece ,I've made the Nusle joggers from itch to stitch I found they are the best for me so far only stretch fabric only though I'm big all over so pants look better slimmer shape on me ..... but some of those pattern are very nice as well I wouldn't mind trying out as well in a tencel blend 😀
Sounds great! They sound so comfy!
Excellent trouser pattern round up! I'm keen to try the Peppermint wide leg pants and the MN Flint culottes.
Sounds great!
Love that shirt you are wearing and would love to know what pattern it is
Hello! It's the Fibremood Viva dress made into a top!
Hello Kristen. I am surprised that you didn't feature the Pattern Emporium "Pleats to Meet You" pants, I am going to be sewing two pairs of these from some double brush poly (from Lush Fabrics), I reckon these pants will be great for the cooler but still warm weather. Please keep the linen and viscose solid fabrics in your shop as these are so great to make pants from (and yes I will be ordering some of it...)
Love them too! I may have to do a knit pant episode too!
@@thedahliasewciety I didn't know that this vlog was for pants made from woven fabrics, I look forward to seeing your next one
I have just purchased the Bob pants pattern from Style arc. I have always admired this pattern. I am Five foot 1 so not tall. I do hope they suit my height. They do have quite a distinct shape to the leg. Anyway giving it a go.😄
Wonderful!
I actually have had very good success with the Helen's Closet Arden Pants. I love the Ninnis, and the Free Range Slacks. I also love Simplicity 8841 and Pants Number One by 100 Acts of Sewing. I want to sew more culottes and wide legged pants for this summer. It gets very hot here, but I like my legs covered. I'm glad you did this vlog! Thank you!
I think next time with the Ardens i will size up and see how i go!
I have the Pietra pattern but haven’t sewn them yet. I’m really excited to make them in the wide leg version. I hope they aren’t too wide as I’m only 5 foot tall and I find the wide leg pants like the cullotte ones make my legs look really short.
I need to revisit the pattern! The waist is so nice on them!
Just finished the narrow leg version of the Pietra pants. I love them! The next pair I will put an invisible side zipper in as I have a little hard time getting them over my hips.
The pants by Elbe patterns are a simple make and my husband now has 5 pairs. Also great for women but lm not sure if they are still on their website.
Great suggestions! I've been afraid of pants patterns, so I just did up a TNT pajama bottom pattern in a linen/viscose blend. Very basic and functional. Time to literally try some big girl pants 😂. Also, have you ever tried soaking your linen in any kind of solution to soften it? I've read this on the net recently. One person suggested Cola! Have you done it? Does it work?
Sounds great! I have heard about the cola!!!
xXX👍👍👍
Wore my Sew House 7's to death last year. Jessalie Homemade, I think that's her channel name has a fantastic sewalong on youtube. I didn't bother with the French seams as I did not want to wear them cuffed- just serged instead. Great pattern.
