I done made me some trouziz

Style Arc Misty with a few modifications + green stretch denim.  Worn all day to work, hence creases.  Fast make, comfy, could have been a tad longer, and I had waistband issues. [See blog post]

I like 'em though!

Oooh lovely!

What's the denim like? If you do work out where you got it from, please let me know. I'm desperately after stretch denim that is comfy.

It's very soft, no idea how it will stand up in the wash now it's made up [for once, I did prewash, because, well, denim.]

I bought it a year ago, no idea if they have more, it was this seller

I can't stand tough things around my waist and hips so I've been on the hunt! I'll have a look.

Saying this, this is all with the plan to make my own jeans which also completely terrifies me...

They're great - SA strikes again. I've just had a look on Favourite Fabrics and they have some lovely pink stretch denim, I'm very tempted, oh you naughty, enabling Fairy.
