Sewing Instructions:
Read instructions thoroughly before starting to sew.
Layout and pin pattern to material, and then cut out pattern from material.
Step 1
Both the trouser pattern pieces are the same: start with one trouser pattern piece: pin first and then
sew its' back and front inner legs together (6mm seam) and now the other pattern piece: and do the same.
Zig-zag each inner leg seam and then press each seam open.
Step 2
Sewing crotch:
Turn one leg into the right (good) side and place this leg inside the other leg (use scissors and shake to get the leg
through inside the other), once this is achieved - pin the crotch edges together matching inner leg seamlines and sew seam
6mm wide.
Zig-zag seam closed together.
Step 3
Making casing for elastic:
Zig-zag at waist edge.
Turn garment to right (good) side.
Turn under 2cm, press foldline and sew down (6mm from edge),
leaving 1cm gap each side of back seam to be able to thread elastic through the casing with a safety pin later.
Thread elastic through the casing, at ends of elastic sew 6mm seam and then sew the 2cm gap up to complete the casing.
Step 4
Turn grament inside out.
Turn under 6mm twice at leg hem edges and blind-hem stitch into place by hand.
Turn garment to right side.
