Inspired by
an awesome pair of pants I found on
Etsy made by re-purposing found fabrics... I visited my amazingly skilled friend LJ with her room full of machines. She not only smoothed the kinks of my sometimes battle-axe sewing style, she made me herby pumpkin soup too!
So...I have had these lovely pants for a while, and have never 100% enjoyed wearing them with the fear that the loose button hole will win and I embarrassingly wont. Here goes the photo montage...
Stage 1: Re-doing the waist band
(Then I can even add in a colourful belt should I wish)
 |
| Pants, pre fun |
 |
| Once cut & fused, each piece to be pressed, including the to-be belt loops |
 |
| The easy route, sewing the loop holes down first. |
 |
| Attaching everything together |
 |
| Final press by me: battle-axe-esque |
 |
| Walah! |
 |
| Pesky little belt loops worked out in the end. |
Stay tuned for more black additions to these pants, and some final pictures.
Big thanks to LJ for your awesomeness xx
