No, these are wearable pants; the muslin was made out of muslin--LOL.<br /><br />As for color, most of my pants have color--blues, greens, reds, pinks, etc. One day I wore a red pair and my neighbor said, "Red pants?" I don't know what she meant by that, but I love them. I like color. The reason I made these is that I figured if they didn't work out, it was no big deal because of the low price I paid for some very nice fabric. And, as I mentioned, dark ones in photos hide what it is the person is trying to show.glormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08864222002627736492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390369850508009613.post-7852171215338374172010-09-13T12:05:54.146-07:002010-09-13T12:05:54.146-07:00No doubt: pants are the hardest to fit.

Are we going to see some color in the future?poplinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16332308102304643628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390369850508009613.post-63129052285479717682010-09-13T10:59:33.449-07:002010-09-13T10:59:33.449-07:00FP, I haven't used a commercial pattern in yea...FP, I haven't used a commercial pattern in years. I buy them on occasion, hoping to find one which comes close to my own pattern, but not much luck.<br /><br />Pant leg length adjustments are one of the easiest to do. Petite patterns are long gone, but patterns usually have length adjustment lines on them. I usually don't do more than 1 1/2" in any one place. If more is needed, I will shorten above and below the knee. Then use a ruler to "true" the lines (so those jagged lines don't become part of the pants LOL)glormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08864222002627736492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390369850508009613.post-20406758386828620992010-09-13T10:52:06.400-07:002010-09-13T10:52:06.400-07:00Joansie, I know you have mentioned that you had se...Joansie, I know you have mentioned that you had sewn and had made doll clothes, but I think of you as a fantastic knitter.<br /><br />I had to be determined to get pants, a staple item, to fit. Pants are one of the easiest items to sew, but the hardest to fit.glormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08864222002627736492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390369850508009613.post-58650474652075963452010-09-13T09:28:42.266-07:002010-09-13T09:28:42.266-07:00I have a friend with an EXTREMELY short in-seam (s...I have a friend with an EXTREMELY short in-seam (shorter than petite, though she's got a long torso and big feet - who says God doesn't have sense of humor?).
