So lovely LD, as always.

Finally, I have something to post for a change. Aweful pics of me in my new grey woolen blend 30s style trousers - made from Lauren's Wearing History pattern. The grey is darker than it appears and has a charcoal fleck through it.

Because these are for formal (for work) I made them without the belt loops and belt and changed the tucks at the front to darts. Tucks make me took too pear shaped.

But yes, I love them, they sit well, drape nicely and were easy to make. Making the jeans now from light-weight denim :)

Woo Hoo I made something other than a tutu (not that those aren't fun, but I can't wear them lol) This is Simplicity 3780.

Thanks guys. nice to actually be able to POST something here ;) Putting the darts in was no drama DPD. Same width an everything. Just makes them sit flatter for me :) My bum is wide enough as it is, don't need the front looking the same...hahah.

Swinggal I love those pants! I have some patterns, but haven't tried making any of them. Summer's in FL, the last thing your thinking of is the warmer clothes. lol
