Great comfy trousers!

I really enjoyed sewing my Arden trousers - the instructions are extremely thorough and include extra helpful tips along the way. I liked the fact that the instructions tell you to sew double lines of topstitching along some of the seams and bar tacks at the stress points of the pockets; they're not complicated steps, but they're not included in lots of patterns and I think they help the finished trousers to look more professional.

My hip measurement fell between two sizes and I chose to make the larger of the two sizes. I'm happy with the fit - they're possibly a little roomier than they need to be but they're really comfy and I like how they look. The only change I made was to lengthen the legs by about 2 inches (I'm 5'9").

I’ve found my perfect pants!

Finally I’ve found the perfect pants pattern. These fit so well!! And you’re right, I won’t just be making one pair.
The pattern Itself was easy to follow, and I chose not to do the side pockets as I made these in cord and didn’t want them to be too bulky.
Next I’ll make a linen pair!!

Thank you!
