I love these jeans! The pattern turned out to be a clone of my TNT so, really, the best part is the fabric and is what makes these my Best Jeans Ever. Dark navy denim with just a hint of stretch. I'm SO hoping that the denim I ordered yesterday from Fabric.com is more of this wonderful stuff because I can't remember exactly where I got this piece from and now it's all gone. Sniff.
Today I'll be finishing up my re-make of the shirred tee from the latest Burda Plus. And waiting for the cooktop repairman. Maybe I'll be able to use my pots and pans again tonight.
Aw, just look at your tushy up there. They look great!!(the jeans, not your multiple tushies. you only have one that I'm aware of.)
ReplyDeleteI do love that Simplicity pattern...really not going to say "I told you so" on your completely traitorous act of trying a different pant pattern. :P
Lookin' Good!
ReplyDeleteYou look almost giddy. Just goes to show what a good fit does for a gal. Well done!
ReplyDeleteDebbie they look great! Can I fly you up to Seattle to help me get a great fitting pair of pants? g
ReplyDeleteThese jeans look great on you! Love the pockets!
ReplyDeleteReally nice! (I'm envious of your nice green yard as we "only" got 1" of snow this morning, and freezing rain has been falling ever since)
ReplyDeleteWish I could send my appliance repair man through the computer for your cooktop. He fixed both my fridge and washer the same day! Here's hoping for the return of the pots & pans!
These jeans look terrific--your attention to detail in following the pattern is what makes them really shine! The fit is perfect and the overall garment is awesome! Good work!

azFantastic job Debbie, great pictures, too.
ReplyDeleteGreat jeans! I think now that you have done these jeans with the stretch denim from ES he will have lots of orders for this fabric.

ReplyDeleteWish I could do the fly topstitching as well as you can. How about a tutorial on topstitching that edge?

Your jeans look absolutely fantastic...job well done on altering the pattern... and I love that top - style, fit and fabric. Where did you get the fabric?
ReplyDeleteI wish we had green - sunny days too....it's sooooooooo cold here :}
Love those jeans, I am going to sew my simplicity pattern this weekend then. I actually have 2 of those patterns, for fear of it not being available soon.
ReplyDeleteThose legs have perfect balance and your behind got a built-in lift! Who could ask for a better fit!
Debbie, your jeans look great! I have always been afraid of making jeans.
ReplyDeleteI'm de-lurking to tell you how great those pants look! I love your blog (and check in often) and you really inspire me to try some of those things that have intimidated me for years (like jeans, ack!).
ReplyDeleteYou look sensational(and very happy) in your clothes,Debbie.Well done on getting those jeans just right.
ReplyDeleteDebbie ~ these look fantastic on you! I hope it is the same fabric from Fabric.com because you need to make more of these!
