Butterick Pattern Name/Number
5539 Pattern Description
Pull-on pants with leg width variations, and one waist/yoke variation. Which view and size did you make?
View D, straight leg, separate waistband piece Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes If not, why?
Yes, except I didn't stitch down the front/back center leg pleats - not my style. Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes If not, why?
- What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
These are pull-on pants without a ton of excessive fullness at the waist, even on me, even though I have much larger hips than waist. Fabric used
Stretch twill Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
Nothing except to alter to fit, and to not stitch down the center front/back leg crease. [My grandma ALWAYS wore that style, and hence I just can't do it for me! LOL] Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes Any additional comments
Great, simple, pull-on pants. Did you SNS what you made from this pattern? If so, add a link to your SNS here.
