Lounge Pants

November 6, 2010 By Spoonful of Sugar - 25 Comments

Two pairs of Lounge Pants were sewn up last night using the “Take It Easy Lounge Pants” pattern from Sewing Green.

I omitted the cuffs on the pant legs and added a drawstring to the waist band. They are super comfortable and will be just the ticket on our upcoming winter holiday.

After all the magazine projects I have been working on lately, it felt good to be making something for myself! Sarah loves her polka dot pants, and the Bliss flannel is extremely soft and thick.

    I made some of these last year with my students (15 years old). They were fun to make, quick and the girls loved them. Lovely fabric.

    I am very jelly-eyed of those pants 😉 I’m a bit of a sporadic and dodgy sew-er but I’m thinking it’s worth dusting off the old girl for those!
