Thank you so much for this review! I’ve been tossing back and forth about this pattern, and after reading your review I will definitely buy it!

How do you think it will work on the minkee-type fabric? Also, I don’t have a serger (I wish I did!), I typically just do a french seam – do you see that being a problem with this pattern? Thank you so much in advance for your help! It is great to be able to ask this question to someone who has experience with this pattern!

Thanks for the great review, Mary! It looks like a great basic pant pattern that would be fun to add on to!

The outfit is amazing and the review is excellent! (And the little girl is completely adorable too!) Thank you so much!

I’m totally with you on top-stitching. That little extra can make a big difference.

Love these pants! They really are a lot of fun to sew. I know the pictures (and my review) don’t really reflect it, but the pants are unisex. Just make the boys’ style with a cuff instead of a ruffle. It really is amazing how the fabric choice changes up the look.

The top I made is self drafted but really just a simple jumper that’s shortened to top length (and probably a little too short, to be honest).

So cute! I wish I could make these- every time I see the pattern I want to make some. I The only problem being that neither of my boys would look very good in that adorable outfit! Love the idea of the pattern review!

I JUST finished making my first pair of these for my daughter as PJ bottoms — they were so easy I’m ready to make more!!! Thanks for the pattern review!

I LOVE this pattern! It is so hard to find cute capris, and with so many of the girls dresses now being so short and my daughter being so tall and slim, I am eager to get my hands on this pattern! Plus you make it sound SO easy!
