Great pattern

Next up I made these jeans in the straight leg, zipper fly version. So, so happy with these and will definitely make them again. Shortened waist 1.5cm and leg 5cm. I have KATM rivets but unable to source the setter at the moment.

Really great pattern

I really enjoyed sewing this pattern. I made two pairs of shorts and they both turned out really well. I did zipper fly with a different installation because I prefer that. I definitely recommend this pattern.

Excellent shorts pattern

I bought the Dawn jeans pattern to make some shorts and later a pair of jeans. My thinking was the $5 remnant of denim would make a great pair of summer shorts as well as being a wearable toile for the jeans. I shortened the waist by 1.5cm due to my 163cm height otherwise a straight size 12. The fly construction was different to anything I’ve done before and it turned out very nice. Next time I would probably lengthen the leg by 2-4cm as a personal choice due to age. ☺️
I never thought I’d even consider having 2 sewing machines but after changing from regular to topstitch thread many times I’m thinking it’s be a great idea. 😅
I’m looking forward to making the jeans next with some denim from The Fabric Store.
I cut these out from the provided A0 pdf file using my Epson projector. Thank you for supporting the projector sewing community.

The greatest

Stunning jeans pattern! The fit is so good, no problems with the crotch area (which I often have). I love that there are so many leg options, my favourite is straight leg, which is just perfect. I have already sewn 5 pairs despite being 4 months postpartum with second baby. I love sewing these jeans so much I just have to find time for it :).

Great pattern

I have made the dawn straight leg jeans. And I love how it fits and how it came together. I could make it straight out of the pocket. Can’t wait to make the wide leg jeans next.
