AA Pants 1/2 Done!

I finished the first of the two pairs of Apparel arts Pants last week, but turned them in this week because I was sick. I hope to finish the Second pair this week. The waistband is almost done, then it is just buttonholes and adding the decorative lacing.

There are a few things I would change, but over all I am really happy with my new pair of pants! I still want to get some suspenders, but haven't found any I really like yet. Not that the pants need them, I just think it would be nice to have some.

For next time: Bottom of Facing still has little bump, so I want to extend them longer. Also the CF measurement is a little too long (Or stretched) so when I sit or bend I suddenly have extra fabric (When I stand it is smooth, but you can still pinch out a good one inch) The waistband (if I sit for a long time) starts to dig into my stomach a bit. I am not really sure what the fix for this would be, increase the back rise so it doesn't pull backwards when I sit??


The pants have a total of 16 1/2 buttons. When i was sewing them on I noticed that I had lost one. I went back to the store and they were all out! Luckily the lady sold me the sample (at a discount even!) Another reason why Stone Mountain and Daughter is awesome!
