We have had lots of tears this summer of trying to find a pair of school trousers to fit my DD. When you do not fit into "normal" sizes, especially as a tween it can be very upsetting. I made her a pair and let her decide if they were acceptable! She loved them! even told her friends that she has made to measure trousers, lol!

THANK YOU soooooo much Jalie, you've made one 12 year old very happy!!! (and her mum)

These pants are the best fitting pants I have found and have made a few pairs, however, the front waist dips a little too much for my comfort and I have used a curved waistband from another pattern to make them sit better.
