An experiment gone...passable

I wanted to make Mihika new pants. Actual jeans, because so far, I've made her lots of clothing out of gray stretch jersey...we needed some variety.
This pattern was modified, because it was designed for making pants out of socks, which stretch, and my denim doesn't. The thing is...I didn't measure, I guessed. They turned out all right, though, Mihika likes them, but I had to sew huuuge pleats in the sides to make them fit...try and try again?
Anyway, fashion show!

These are comfy.

I like the belt loops...

And the pockets.

It's fun to have new clothes!

Like I said, she likes 'em, I'm not so easily pacified...I'll have to try that again. But...they are cute on her! <3

Grats! And don't worry, if you were able to make it fit with a little alteration, then you're golden. :) Get a tape measure and keep at it! Can't wait to see future pieces.

Looks good. I'm trying to sew pants myself too.

Now sew more stuff for Mihika as practice, I'm sure she has a long list of wants. :lol:

They're a great start and I love the working pockets.
