Burda Style For people who sew
Description
BWOF 6/2008, #103 pattern.
A shorts pattern I used several times, and made one pair of pants with few minor alterations. This time, I altered the pattern more – I wasn’t satisfied with the crotch on the back, so I played with it a bit. I am not quite satisfied with the back of the pants, but it was the best I could get with this pair without making a muslin. So, next time, maybe I’ll get it right.
I altered the pockets – made jeans style front pockets, but with angled shape. Also, I added welted back pockets.

Volim da pogledam tvoje kreacije.Divim ti se što uspeš sebi toliko stvari da uradiš.Ove pantalone po meni izgledaju dobro, samo što bih ja ostavila malo duže, bar da pokriju petu.To je samo moje mišljenje jer volim da pantalone budu baš duge.

Eh da… Stvar je u tome sto su pantalone bile duge, ali su se posle prvog pranja skupile :-|.
Imala sam ovaj pamuk jako dugo, i bila sam ubedjena da sam ga potapala u vodu ne bi li se skupio, ali ocigledno sam pogresila.
Mogu da ih produzim za neka 2cm, koliko je dubok porub, i da nasijem fals porub, ali me uvek mrzi (nikako ne volim da prepravljam garderobu!)…
Sto se tice zadnjeg dela, ne svidjaju mi se nabori koje imam ispod zadnjice. Mislim da to moze bolje da se uradi.

Gorgeous pants, fits you perfectly, I cannot believe you made that out a short pattern. Wasnt difficult to make the pattern longer? BTW your blouse is the perfect match.

It is easier than you think – I lenghtened the shorts’ legs to the desired length. When I put all the pieces together, I shaped the legs a bit (narrowed them down around knees).
I worked with this pattern a lot and thought it would be easier to alter it since I know how it fits me, than to trace a pants pattern and test it all over again. I hate making muslins, so I try to make corrections on every piece while working on it.

Fantastic job! I don’t see the problem with the pants at all and they look like a perfect fit! Always looking forward to your next creation!

Klasse! I think it is quiet difficult to fit a trousers pattern. There are so much details you have to conisder. This one turned out well – operation succesful! :) You looks gorgeous!
