Anyway, with summer finally here I have had quite a bit of time to work on some projects. Due to my break and then sudden vacation I have not had much time to share my creations with you all.
This past month I created my first three pairs of pants, but why does the title say two you ask. The first ones I made I don't count because they were my test run and I used them just to try out sewing techniques and figure out the pattern. I feel very proud of myself because this was the first clothing piece I made without my grandmother assisting me.
There were a few bumps on the road and I sewed the wrong pant leg to another pant leg and ended up with the front pieces together. At which point I had to unpick every stitch very carefully because I was using a silk-type polyester fabric {it was a mess}. But I got them both completed and ready to wear. I haven't styled them yet, but they are awesome pieces and I cannot wait to wear them out and share some pictures.

Silk-Type Polyester Elastic Waist and Hems
I do plan on making a post/video on how to make a basic pair of pants when I have properly perfected the art of making pants. The second pair I made were similar to Harem Pants style, but I originally made them using a pattern for sleeping pants {they are actually Capri but I'm short} and altered them to look more like Harem style pants.
Let me know if you want a sewing tutorial, I could definitely do one.
xoxo, Ana
