I always get excited by the pattern envelope and don't think about my body type and how it will fit ;-)<br /><br />I think pockets in the back would be cool; and yes, casual pants are fun and I'm glad they aren't overly baggy. I just need to play around with them. <br /><br />Thanks!Kristin at SunnySewing.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15445370690561159996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712973868701470983.post-33177982205369128362013-09-01T19:50:26.462-05:002013-09-01T19:50:26.462-05:00Thanks!

Not the best for a curvy pear-shape like me :)<br /><br />A stretch woven would be wonderful with these. You actually gave me the idea that a stretch velour would be perfect - without pockets. I love my fuzzy lounge pants!Kristin at SunnySewing.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15445370690561159996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712973868701470983.post-61632907737847943622013-09-01T12:32:43.734-05:002013-09-01T12:32:43.734-05:00It's nice to see these in an adult version. Ma...It's nice to see these in an adult version. Maybe the slimmer fit is meant to counteract the elastic waist effect? That also seems to fit with Jalie tending to be slim-fitting. But I like them for what they are - casual pants that aren't extremely baggy. They seem like a good base to play around with (bigger pockets, maybe some pockets in back.)Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17756048999067152284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712973868701470983.post-62570453913488430452013-09-01T10:52:45.098-05:002013-09-01T10:52:45.098-05:00I had a similar experience.

In a non-stretch fabric, I would advise going up a size.<br /><br />I drafted my own pockets with mixed success, too.<br /><br />I like the curved waistband. It's unusual in pull-on pants and elevates the fit.badmomgoodmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11569728075698885020noreply@blogger.com
