This garment works well as it was a nice fit, with 2 extra seam lines down the back legs making them more fitted around the hips and thighs. They look very fashionable on and seem very practical to wear daily because of the comfortable fit, and i hemmed the legs with cuffs making the ankle area fitted also. I used a zip opening that runs trough the high waisted waistband. A problem was that when i was sewing both legs together, i tubed one leg inside the other and sewed the crotch area in the 'U' shape, but because i had the extra seams it was hard to get all the lines to meet correctly, but managed it in the end. next time i would improve these by not making them so high waisted, and make the pockets deeper.
The fabric was a Wool/Viscose mix, i used 2 metres, cost was £6 a metre and was from Aberkhan, in Liverpool.
