RTW pants have never ever fit me properly (I am flat in back and somehow manage to have back waist gap issues!), so once I got that first TNT, I'm really pretty good forever minus adding and taking off little design details. Good luck in your ventures. I think the flares will be really a great style on you!Elizabeth Made Thishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16611395530073290874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507269696688990191.post-71667038536084001072017-05-26T10:03:04.971-04:002017-05-26T10:03:04.971-04:00I laughed reading your post remembering how enthus...I laughed reading your post remembering how enthused I was the first time I ventured into making my own pants - it wasn't a total success I'm sad to say but I've been thinking of tackling this task once again too. I don't know why it should be so difficult but it is - getting that fit comfortable, flattering and made with the RIGHT fabric is truly an adventure :)PsychicSewerKathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06911914507722968930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4507269696688990191.post-70936843183665980102017-05-26T08:18:06.533-04:002017-05-26T08:18:06.533-04:00I have no doubt you can achieve this.

Plus, your sturdy fabric "pattern pieces" are tougher than paper, you can just roll 'em up and that's your pattern, ready for the next pair, and the next!
