High waisted navy nautical inspired trousers

[horrormaedchen]

I finished this pair of trousers last week. I used McCalls 5592 which was very easy to put together and I love how the trousers turned out. I'll be making them again. I already have some dark denim ready to go.


I lined the pockets with red star print cotton that I had some scraps of, for detail.

More pictures and details as always on my blog.

LOVE. These look great! I need to draft my skinny legs to wide leg, and add pockets. That adds a lot to this look. Great job!

I'm going to follow your blog, I have been there before and you make really cute stuff

I loved your pants so much I went out to buy the pattern.  My Joanns didn't have it :-(

I am not 100% sure but it might be out of print now. I couldn't find it on McCalls website when I was searching for a picture of the pattern envelope to add to my blog post. I would try ebay. You often have a good chance to get out of print patterns there.

It's also a great way to use up fabric scraps, especially very small ones that are no good for anything else.

Oh I love her XXX That's a very sweet compliment. Thank you.

Thanks everyone else for your kind words.
