But The Original Fit Me ?!?
So I started sewing my trousers yesterday thinking that if I didn't I would have nothing to wear.
So working out the whole order for sewing things together was a bit tricky. I had no pattern having just taken apart a pair of jeans I had made too many holes in.
It all seemed to be going so well and then I tried them on.
Sob - Now I am depressed as, well, I can't decide which scenario I would prefer.
1. The trousers I used were too small (only by like [.........] this much before I took them apart which means I gained weight :(
2. I sewed it together in a way that made is smaller despite the pattern - Personally I don't think I could mess up that badly.
3. I cut them out wrong but again don't think that is likely as I was probably over generous in parts to avoid such an issue.
Conclusion - well as they aren't fully sewn up yet and I have material left I will probably be able to enlarge them slightly until I loose the weight. Provided of course that the jeans last that long :P
At least they look good on me, it's just the pockets that are showing their insides a bit. Hmm will have to think on this before I cut out the parts for the next pair.
