The pants were time consuming but problem free – until I wore them and watched them stretch all out of shape in the course of an evening. I bought expensive fabric for these too. Maybe they’ll be better after a few washings. I’m sick of this look anyway. I’ve been wearing black pants with a colorful top practically every day for five years. It’s not interesting, and it’s also much less flattering than I thought. It makes the torso look like a square and divides the body into two unrelated pieces.
I thought this would be the easiest top to make. It has kimono sleeves, so it’s basically just a front and back sewn together. Everything was fine until I hemmed the sleeves and stretched the edges way out of shape. I do love this fabric and I bought enough for a second top in another style, so we’ll see how that goes.
