I am very satisfied with how these pants turned out. The pattern was used straight out the envelope no alteration was needed. I used china silk to construct the trouser pockets, Sandra Betzina - flat fly front zipper method to insert the zipper and I also added two faux double welt pockets to the back using Palmer/Pletsch Pants for Real People. This was one of the most simplest methods that I have come across for making faux welt pockets. I have tried other methods with the pocket bag and it just doesn't come out right. The faux pockets are simpler and easy to construct.

I am very thrilled with this pattern. I love the style of these pants. I love how they fit and it works well with my shape. The pattern instructions were very simple and easy to follow. This is now my TNT pants pattern

Nice looking pant. I love the hair!
You look wonderful!!!! I love that pattern! They look great!
These are a great pair of pants! And I hear you on the snow...it's not the end of January yet and I'm snow weary!
I thought I would make alot of pants this winter for the same reasons as you but I've taken to wearing my jeans to work and changing into a skirt and I'm liking this better!
Hope you get quite a few more pairs made!
Happy New Year! Love the new hair cut. Your pants are very nice. I missed reading your blog entries.
Happy New Year. The pants look great on you and love the fabric choice. I need to look in my stash to see if I have it before running to Joanns...lol
