    Very nice, so many options

    I like this pattern. It is just what I needed - elasticated waistband, which is comfy, and so many different leg styles. I already made shorts, next are wide leg pants. In the future I want to make tapered leg too. Instructions are clear and easy to follow. Thank You! I love Your patterns!

    Pants look great!

    Made the wide leg version in cotton gauze for my very tall daughter. Instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Looking forward to making a pair for myself.

    This was a fabulous pattern. Easy to follow, and it fits me perfectly. Made the paper bag waist shorts. Will make many more.

    I just finished the Opal pants pattern and am really happy with it. I have a hard time finding pants/slacks that fit my petite frame but these sure do! I made them out of rayon batik and they are just what I wanted. Thanks for the great pattern!
