I learned sew much from this class! This is a great pattern. I did lengthen the pants and narrow the legs a bit. The loop sewn into the back of the waistband is great to be able to tell the front from the back. Reinforcing the back seam is brilliant and I will add that step to every pair of pants going forward. The first pair was made from an older cotton sheet and are going to be used as pajama bottoms. Today I will make another pair out of nicer fabric that I can wear out and about. I can see myself making several pairs of these pants. The instruction is excellent and thorough. Follow along and end up with a pair of pants. How cool is that?
