I Finally Made Split Side Pants! (with

[@lighthseskr]

Charlie. What is absolutely fabulous about your channel is that you don't get things perfect but you show how you worked, (or not) through it and then your discussion about how you think you could or how you did fix it. Because let's be honest, home sewing is always throwing curve balls and working them out with others or on your own is grand. It would be awful for me if everything was spot on and perfect on your channel, I probably wouldn't watch as much. Love you and your channel. ❤🎉

[@lifeofjoy9404]

You said ut perfectly!👍💪😁

[@BumblingBee-xm4dy]

Amen hallelujah I love that someone else l’s brain works like mine I feel like she’s a kindred spirit in how our minds process things

[@megmagruder7124]

Well said. I love that it’s a WIP and only becomes second nature like the pockets. Love 💕 the process. Also my job is the rework processes for Multi Family FHA underwriting. 😊

[@chaostiverdant6196]

Suggestion for making flowy fabrics easier to handle: starch them. When you want them to be flowy again just wash them.

[@GayCorvidae69]

How does starching work? Never seen that in my life before

[@chaostiverdant6196]

You can either buy a commercial starch spray, or dissolve corn starch in cold water. Soak your fabric, then iron. Depending on your water to starch ratio, and whether you spray or soak, your fabric will turn out more, or less, stiff. No flowy = no problem sewing. @@GayCorvidae69

[@karenbaily]

There are some videos you can find if you look for tips on sewing rayon. You can buy or make a liquid starch you soak the fabric in then let dry and iron. There are also some spray starches you iron on.

[@chaostiverdant6196]

Starching stiffens the fabric. No flow = no problem sew.@@GayCorvidae69

[@daxxydog5777]

Amen, I’m talking to you, georgette! Figured that one out pretty quickly. Also, spray starching keeps knits from rolling at the edges if you have one of those little %$f# that want to roll up an inch at edges when you accidentally pull on it. So annoying! I get my spray starch at any grocery or big box store in the US.

[@daalelli]

When I was making a split side skirt for my daughter, she wanted a more fitted version that had double front slits. I learned to use the hip measurement (plus seam allowance) as the base measurement and then added darts to bring that in to make the waist measurement. That was a nightmare of math over a very short turn-around, but seeing her wear it really made up for it. Without your original split-sided skirt video, I wouldn't have had any idea where to begin. So, thank you for continuing to put your learning process up where others can see and learn and expound upon. You're the best. I appreciate your struggle and that you make it available and accessible.

[@auroravezzoli5571]

Hi! I just wanted to let you know, I'm a fashion student, and your split side skirt videos have inspired me on my final exam project, and the fact that you now made trousers too is fantastic! I'm going to make a jumpsuit, so... Wish me luck 😅 Anyway, you are amazing and thank you for the incredible inspiration!

[@gettheetothestitchery]

Yaaaaaas make the jumpsuit so I don't have to, yay!!!

[@leahnichol6665]

I hope the jumpsuit works out. I cannot imagine how that will work for bathroom breaks.

[@electricmagnetic]

As a self taught seamstress, I often feel really self-conscious about how I do things, which is very much winging it and I'm glad I'm not the only one. Thank you ❤

[@AshHeilbron]

Hi there! A tip that may work for the gray pants junction in the back is something that I did for a skirt. I sew a strip of wide elastic (like an inch wide) and added a button to it. Then I created different button holes on the waist band so it was stretchy but still adjustable! It works really well and it keeps being elastic while also adjustable (and pretty easy to put on, too). Wonderful video as always!!

[@jomercer21113]

I use the elastic with the spaced buttonholes in it for this purpose.

[@JingleWho]

‘That was a fart.’ made me chuckle way more than is reasonable. Also, I need me some of those patchwork hobbit pants.

[@DawnDavidson]

What a GREAT idea to use the wrapping paper for patterns! Good quality wrapping paper even has a helpful grid on the back. And it comes is really long rolls and is inexpensive, especially at the end of December every year. 😂 🤯

[@findingthatperfectspot4692]

I love the footage of you winding the tape measure around your bun while mentally doing the maths. Very funny. And those grey trousers... Wow.

[@JamieLuv2u]

So, if you want to take this to the next level. Search "infinity jumpsuit" or infinity dress. Basically, make the "sash" extra long and wide, and then the sash becomes your shirt, or shirt accessories in 10 different ways. That is my goal. With the super floofy legs

[@NancyW96CatLady]

I was having a crappy day and this definitely helped. This video combines my two current favourite sewing things: secret pants, and adjustable clothing.

[@NancyW96CatLady]

also side note, sweaters being a textural issue is partly why I either wear a zip up hoodie, or even more preferably, a bathrobe as a house coat. No weird textures too close to my skin. Easy to wear open if too warm, not strangling me like pull-over hoodies. I can envision you making a fanciful house coat with pockets on the inside *and* outside. I want to make a wizard's cloak inspired house coat, but there's so many other (practical, boring) things higher on my to-make list.

[@ShakespeareDoomsday]

The pirate pants are the cutest! This has me thinking about making a faux lace-up for ease of getting the pants on and off. Perhaps a small separating zipper or some skirt hooks or giant snaps (whopper poppers) can allow for both adjustable lacing and ease of accessibility. That would definitely mean that sewing is a little bit more complicated, but I think that would make wearing so much easier.

[@jodiesaw]

Oh love that you're working with Ash! Fantastic!

[@Thecozycuttlefish]

So excited to see you two working together! I love you both!

[@amiestanton1108]

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for inspiring me to make my own split side dress! The pockets can hide a whole share size packet of m&ms in each! Your doing amazing and I love your content!

[@TsundereOtakuGirl]

Hiya! Couple things I noticed (I used to work in theatrical costuming, and now Im an award winning cosplayer), that issue you were having with the butt seam on the flowy trousers probably came from a slight tension issue from the two biases. Basically, one side was probably pulled SLIGHTLY tighter than the other while you were sewing it, causing a very subtle warp that appears corrected when you add tension to the fit like you demonstrated. Second, the hip thing you mentioned is one of those thinga that you only learn making trousers or jumpsuits: the Natural waist (the smallest point on you, usually across your belly button), the 3-inch waist (the point at the top of the hip bone, usually around three inches below the natural waist), and the 9-inch waist (the largest part of the hip, usually around the meaty part of the bum, and typically around 9 inches below the natural waist). Im super tempted to attempt some of those splitside trousers to make my roomie a mushroom costume for renfaire haha

[@sasile]

Thrilled with this video as I have been trying to solve the problem of: - adjustable clothing sympathetic to size changes in my body - sturdy enough to function all day at festivals/have pockets etc without being too hot for a southern US outdoor event - maneuverable enough to use the bathroom at festivals While Wearing coats/shirts/belts/swords etc overtop and not have to strip more than necessary while in tight spaces and hold up lines etc. And watching y'all do this has put me on the right track I think. Thanks so much!!

[@therewillbecatswithgwenhwyfar]

30:19 wow those came out really great! I am laughing a little bit about your 8 yard of fabric on your Palazzo style pants but that is an amazing amount of floof! Your gray pants actually turned out really well for all the trouble they caused you! They make your backside look great and I love the lacing exposed on the front!

[@k9kelly]

Just watching but tape measure around bun gave me so much joy. Also made me think of I Dream of Jeanie. 😂

[@RuailleBuaille]

Yes! She draped it so perfectly 😂 I think the fact the tape is a pale pink helped too.

[@karebear3152]

That third pair came out amazing!!! So freaking cute! The first pair look really nice too and seem great as secret formal pants. The second seems ok as well honestly. They look the most businesslike.

[@dawsie]

Loved the idea of the wire. To make it stable tape it to some cardboard and trim up to the wire this will also give you a space to write down the notes to remind you of the waistband hight to be taken from the leg panels. Plus the centre seam can be noted in place as well as any extra info required for the split side aspects. You can also make the note of where the widest part starts for the hips on the card board. Once done you now have fixed pattern helper for not only pants but also if you’re looking at making A-line skirts. Now I’m off to watch Ash’s version because I feel that between the both of you, the rest of us can take all the best points to be combined into the perfect pattern. Thanks Charlie ❤

[@melissahutton2354]

Just when I think you can’t possibly come up with another variation, you go and do something like this…..and completely redeem yourself! 😂 I love it!

[@merriehightower1481]

I would like to see you try the fitted pants again sometime. Now that you know that it’s the hip measurement and placement that was the problem they did look good after you added all that extra so I would suggest try taking a pattern off those pants and add more at the hip like you did on the shorter pants. I think they’ll look great, when you’re ready. I love watching you discover new ways of doing things.

[@meatshieldmaiden707]

I'd love to see this too! I really adored the look of the grey one and might want to attempt a pair myself. I just need to wrap my head around what the steps where in the video. xD

[@sandyruffin4520]

I love your videos because I am a similar sewist, and have never felt so seen as watching you wrapping the tape measure around your bun. You are a joy!

[@esther5636]

I was thinking with the pockets vs tying the back last. How about having slits in the front waist, having smaller ties for the back piece and threading those through the ties in de front waist. This way you can have the pocket placement underneath the front panel while still being able to untie the back for going to the bathroom? With long enough ties you’ll never have to fully take the ties out of the slits. Style wise this could look a bit like the hanbok skirt pattern by sewing therapy? I hope that description makes sense! Either way thank you for the video and collaborative aspects, I feel very inspired!

[@Bmonkeygurl]

I have one pair of the wrap pants i bought before a trip to Thailand and I never brought them because my legs kept showing all the way up pretty high on my thigh. I liked the idea.

[@SilvanaTheNonCraftingCrafter]

Hi, I had a thunk (not a typo) about the upper part of the trousers not going quite as planned - try cutting them straight up from the hip (with enough ease factored in), then pleating towards the sides from the centre to take up the difference between hip & waist. You could stitch the pleats down a little way (2-3 inches) to keep them in check. I have learned that hips have 3 measurements. Top of bone (just under the waist), mid bone (where we bend) & lower (the widest bit). The one you'd want for these trousers would be the lower one + at least 2 inches ease + seam allowance. Hope this helps :)

[@maryjohnson9337]

The third pair looks so comfy and practical!!

[@samrivenburg]

All 3 of these are perfect! The purple ones look like they are going to a fancy place, the second ones look like you're going to the office and look so personal. And the third ones are for hanging out and gardening! I love them all ❤ you inspire me to make my own clothes!

[@jilltremblay4528]

Charlie I just adore watching your videos so much! I especially liked the part where you were wrapping the measuring tape around your head, that was hysterical!!!! Please never stop being you!!!!!!!!!!!

[@abigbloodyanimefan]

Ah! I’ve met ash at a larp and they’re a genuinely lovely person. I actually found your channel through their content! To say a goblin squeaked when I saw your videos is an understatement. I really think the cropped ones would look amazing at a larp as either a pirate or a hobbit, they’re so cute!

[@idontneedachannelthanksyou7292]

I love how you talk to your dog. Warms my heart. So much love and sweetness. It’s how I talk to my cat, and is nice to know other people do that too!

[@lanaeinkheart7597]

Yay so excited for these. One suggestion for the wire crotch thing. If it’s something you want to keep long term trace it onto a piece of cardboard. I’m so happy you made these. I want to do a version that look like baggy breaches. Now I just have to find the time. And fix the sewing machine. Thanks again

[@middyone]

I know the grey ones aren't your favorite, but I love how they turned out. They look great on you!

[@MaryanneN_]

I agree!

[@stefflcus]

These are all so great, even if the first two have issues. They still look amazing! And the third pair!! I covet. I love that you DID show us so much of the process, and it always makes my Friday to watch your videos. I'm sorry you have a bit of performance anxiety about it! I do love the knowledge you drop and the learning process, but that's not why I'm here. The entertainment and inspiration are the magic ingredients.

[@leaf2576]

Such a cool collaboration between two of my favorite SewTubers! I avoid saying "croch" so much by saying "inseam" instead lol.

[@jordakovaeliska]

I quite recently came across your channel and I am obsessed! I already made split side dress and do not know how I lived without it🤯 your videos are very inspiring for trying something new not worrying too much and that is exactly what I struggle with. Si thank you😍

[@MsHedgehog]

Chiming in to say that the japanese solved the pocket issue of hakama by having huge pocket sleeves instead. Which I find deligthful! When measuring for a trouser block for woven fabric you are supposed to take all your measurments *while sitting down on a chair* and add ease on top of that. The sitting down part can make a fairly big difference in the measurments because we humans are fairly squishy around the middle, and the general reasoning is that a loser fit while standing is better than a too tigth a fit while sitting. I also agree on the crotch mold. I have tried the math way, and it only worked as a starting point for fitting and I was going for a fairly loose fit!

[@bridoesthings]

for the little gap on the side you could use a hook and eye or something similar to avoid it

[@Gandellion]

When you said “a general lack of precision” I was thinking ooh I love a general lack of precision. And then I realised no I actually DONT love a general lack of precision, I just don’t have the patience, eyesight ir dexterity to achieve anything more than a general lack of precision. I am on a journey of self discovery

[@robintheparttimesewer6798]

Well that was fun! I was pleasantly surprised to see you on Ash's channel. I started there then came over here to see what you did. I'm really hoping that you two will be able to show others designs. This is my only social media and trying to get my kids to follow you would be hard! The only other thing is that toward a pant in the 90's that sort of were adjustable. They had a triangle of fabric on the sides of the pants that had Velcro that attached to the centre front. No idea what they were called and there were no pockets I really like all of the variety in how you both went about this. They all look great!

[@lonnielove8452]

The jogger is so cute!!! I must replicate!!

[@deborahhawe4432]

I love watching you so much! You Crack me up. I've been sewing since I was about 12, so 50 years! I originally learned on my grandmother's treadle machine -which I still have. I've never been brave enough to try designing my own items but you are inspiring me. Thank you 🤗🙏💖

[@auntnessy7340]

Nice work as always. I am impressed with your ingenuity. I have a bendable ruler that helps with what you did. I got it on line.

[@juliemac5604]

The ones my grandmother made in the 70's had elastic in the back waist, with 2 hook and eyes (that hook at the belly button). Then the front ties around the back with very long and lovely ties.

[@janiekcarney5482]

I made these for myself years ago. So easy.

[@mishaday7659]

I adore the look of the patchy pirate pants! (Third time's a charm?)

[@LaineyBug2020]

Pink- Dress, Grey- Business, Patch- Casual. You slay in the gray pair, BTW! I liked all of them, but you were a total Boss Babe in the grey!

[@tracylamb903]

They make tape measures that are bendable and hold its shape. I have one.

[@maxinebracey9176]

I liked the grey trousers the best - despite the mistakes. Thanks xx

[@shell91]

I love them, especially the knee length ones. They look so comfortable

[@Twilightwitchery]

Super fun! I really like each of them. And I love how you go over the pros and cons and practicality or lack there of lol

[@HealthyDisrespectforAuthority]

That middle of the front to middle of the back measurement can also be called the rise, interchangeably with crotch. I really like that third fabric.. patchwork is kind of my love language

[@lindadavis3728]

I love this channel, it is so entertaining, unfortunate probably not so much for the one who is doing the demo, but her personality is so cute and humerous you have to continue to the end to see the completed projects. All three pant styles looked great on her but it wasn't about the look it was all about the fit so she addressed that which was important. How many of us go through cutting out a pattern and not having fit comfortable. Our once anticipated excitment turns in to - Oh No what have I done, but I love how she smiled and added alittle bit fabric where needed and in doing so made it very fashionable, the grey pants really looked good on her. Enjoyed her personality and will smile next time I come up with "Oh no what have I done" moment. I hope and cross my fingers it won't be a reoccuring incident.

[@nopenahda8617]

I'm currently working on something similar, mine is influenced by the Hakama Kimono. Mine are not just pants though. I am making a overalls/jumpsuit version. A jumpsuit you don't have to completely undress to use the loo. I'm still working out the kinks before sewing but this video was extremely helpful! Oh, I also want to easily tuck in shirts to wear over the top. Like sweaters and buttons up for more variety

[@debbismith-moore8940]

STUPID PANTS!!! YOU MADE STUPID PANTS!!! ❤❤❤❤ When I was fresh out of high school, I hung around with the local SCA group on campus downtown. We called the gray pants you made "stupid pants" because they were so easy to make that if you couldn't make them, well... you get the picture! Literally a piece of fabric folded into fourths, the crotch and waist seam cut, sew the crotch, fold down the waist and make a tube, hem raw edges (or don't), thread a tie through each waistband, and done! Tie the front around the back, tie the back around the front, tie the ankles. STUPID PANTS!!! 😂❤

[@doll_thread_lovedolllady4422]

I did split side pants with a knit fabric three summers ago. I didn’t sew up the side seams at all and they don’t have pockets. They are more of the traditional Japanese wrap pants style.

[@tracybrewer3377]

The wire thing is a great idea. It's good to see even you can do little mistakes. And haven't edited those out. I've only just found your channel and are enjoying them. So a huge thank you for bringing these to us. Will be watching more from you

[@jjmetrejhon1743]

Okay, I love all of these, but the grey ones are so sophisticated!? Like.....I'm fairly new to sewing and I haven't been all too successful in what I've made (they look good, they feel terrible) but those trousers are *so* classy. I can't decide if I want to put the big flowy ones first on my list or the sophisticated ones!

[@ArlenePMCM]

Those gray pants are gorgeous! A bit of measurement tweaking, and perfection! Pirate pants are adorable. Another great way to get crotch back to front is to get a long length of aluminum foil, fold it longwise until it's nice and sturdy. then mold it to your shape.

[@jdot3345]

I am beyond giddy! I have waited for this since I first commented asking “Pants?” on one of the first few videos of your split side skirt series!! Thanks for listening to us viewers, even if you thought of it before one of us commented, lol. Still holding out for the “Make & Bake” video!! Until then, I’ll keep watching your videos while wishing I knew how to sew! 😂

[@fallenangel1049]

Back in the late 70’s- early 80’s it was very popular to have wrap skirts or wrap gauchos, that were sort of wide legged….i made a pair that i wore w a pr of riding boots comfy and warm for winter and fall….loved them, may still have the pattern….lol…..pack rat and things come back in fashion

[@KathleenStidham]

❤ love this collaboration with AshLG - they’re one of my other favorite youtubers; I think it’s the experimentation and honest exploration of methods and styles. MORE!

[@tmcaleer50]

I remember wrap pants from the late 60’s-early 70’s and there is also the Thai fisherman pants. There is a lot of fabric to these pants but they have a loose airy feel about them. With the closure at the front you have side gaps and visual open long fabric line facing the front, with width and volume added to the hips. I think making the closure at the back might solve some of what makes be shy away from this style. This is more difficult to deal with and possibly uncomfortable when sitting back against a tie. The old style wrap around skirts had a slit in the top of the skirt trim whereby you could slide the tie through it and tie it together in the front. Placing 2 of this type slit on each side along with some belt loops to keep it in place might be the ticket for me to try to achieve fabric flaps back.

[@mariannerady1137]

fabulous to see your process. Patterns are so intimidating to begin with and then you have to alter to fit you. Understandign that you can do quite a few things yourself with a bit of trial and error is very valuable and encourraging. Thanks so much!

[@BumblingBee-xm4dy]

14:11 lol i just seal edges with clear nail polish (the cheap kind from the dollar store) until I’m ready to take care of them… i stitch everything by hand so sometimes i dont get to them until a few days to a week later depending on how busy i get lol i also do this immediately after cutting on fabrics that have a high fraying tendency lol

[@poetmaggie1]

your more open and free thinking has been a great help to getting me out of the box and into being a bit more flexible with how I sew.

[@crafty_owl]

YAY so excited to see a collab between you and Ash!

[@carrollnabors4846]

Excellent as usual!! You are such a fun person and very entertaining. Thanks for the fun and lessons. Have a blessed weekend.

[@WantedVisual]

This was a lovely video to watch while trying to do sewing math for a project for an adult where I can only find complete patterns and project notes for very small children. The wire trick might actually come in handy at a later stage....

[@atelieralumine]

As an attempt to level up my pattern-making skills I think I pulled the ultimate lever : I became a professional pattern-maker. It works great. But now I feel compelled to do three prototypes for every project! So it's very liberating to watch your free-handed process! Thank you! Also an anecdote: the first year I started to sew I was 12, and for my very first project I decided to draft a dress myself. It was okay save for the fact that I forgot to add a hole for the head!! I've come a long way hahaha

[@purpunknat]

I'm 9 minutes in and I cannot handle how excited I am about these pants. omg omg there are belt loops. Should I be grading rn? Yes. Am I making sewing plans instead? Also YES.

[@The.Spoonie.Witch66]

I love each and everyone of these pants! I think the grey looks amazing on you, even with the fit issues you mentioned. Amazing job, can’t wait until I’m advanced enough to try these.

[@apcolleen]

Agghhhh! I'm so glad you found each other. I watch you both for similar reasons

[@greenbeepdx]

I'm no expert, but on the first pair, regarding the flow of the back seam and roushing (sp?), I'm curious if cutting on the diagonal would help the stretch and flow as the fabric drapes/hangs. Thanks for the video 👍🏼💕

[@Zicwai]

I actually made some split pants after seeing your skirt video and the choice I made was to have the back pocket panel sew into the back waist band -- tie the back waist band first using something slim/unnoticeable-- and then the front pocket panel, while connect to the front pants outseam, was not connected to the front waist band, so free floating essentially. Meaning -- it's borderline impossible to have to have skin slippage within the "split", with the caveat it's adjustability comes from the width of the free floating front pocket panel.

[@quaryn]

Also: totally relate about the sensory issues re: sweaters! I recommend putting on a long sleeved t-shirt or turtleneck underneath.

[@aussie_vonnie]

Great to see 2 of my favourite creators working together ❤

[@stillhuntre55]

Just watched AshLG's video! Love this concept - gonna work on this myself. As someone in retail, I'm always going to the washroom in public toilets - so my trousers being a pile of fabric on a disgusting floor is a problem I need to crack! That said - I like longer tunics and I NEVER show my trouser waistband. My tops are always untucked and flowy, or I tuck in and wear a waistcoat which covers my waistband. But pockets are a must.....

[@laurakuzara5696]

I haven't sewn since high school (pajama paints and letter pillows, lol). But I am slowly but surely binging all your videos, and now I have an itch.

[@BookCat18]

So excited 🎉🎉😂 fancy pants time! Love the cross over with Ash LG as well.

[@astrinymris9953]

8:38 Way back in the Pleistocene (the 1970s) I had a pair of pants with a D-ring front fastener. I have no idea when they were constructed because it was an inter-family handmedown, and I received a lot of dated clothing through this route. In any event, I liked these pants, and found the fastener quick and easy, definitely faster than a drawstring. So if you're trying to think of a more convenient alternative to ties and drawstrings, consider D-rings. Just a suggestion. 🙂

[@WonhoTraveler]

Super interesting! Thank you for showing us

[@amywelliver538]

They all look amazing on you. I love the surprise pattern and the fuschia ones are like "secret" pants! So great!

[@purplehound2420]

Have you considered adding buttons along the side seam?

[@tovahgoldfine5146]

Idea for a variation of the elastic waist on the grey pants; Do a full round enclosed waistband for that panel, but with an elasticated back half. Like pulling on any pants with any other elastic waist, the only difference is that it has no butt.

[@vibynature]

I wish you showed us the full pattern you used(if as all) and show what measurements were for which part

[@Drgn8DDragonsDungeon]

Cross section? Nah... CROTCH-section!... Maybe.... 😂

[@megmagruder7124]

LOL

[@leahnichol6665]

I am so impressed with the fit you got using the wire! Now I want to try that. Pants are complicated - forgetting the hip measurement is pretty easy to do when there is so much else going on.

[@stacieduncan97]

This did my heart so much good! Thank you for sharing! My daughter had weight loss surgery about a year ago. We thought the wrap around pants would be ideal for while she was rapidly losing weight and inches. I am so glad I tried a mock first. Soo.. many problems with it! However, with the mock, we discovered this style would not work at all for her or her job. How to manage in a restroom was at the top of the list. Watching your video validated for me that the problems were not just me trying to do more than I knew how. Again, thank you for sharing!!!

[@DawnDavidson]

The berry colored ones are gorgeous, elegant, and swoosh. The grey ones are classy and professional, and they actually fit you quite well. The patchwork ones are cute and adorable, and you need to record something in them with your dog, like a live version of The Fool card in the Tarot. 😂

[@katmusswoodwind]

Honestly i couldn't see the issues with the 2nd pair. The 3rd pair of pants are GORGEOUS!

[@jessicaneal8553]

The split side pants that I had years ago were, when laid out as flat as I could, rectangles with a crotch cut out the top where it was sewn together. Offset the crotch U toward the front to make the front smaller than the back. Ties on the front and back and hemmed. No I didn't make them, I was simply intrigued 😊

[@lilithpluto]

Love that all 3 have such different styles and vibes!

[@ginarosemontarano2784]

So cool to see you working together! I was first introduced to the split side skirt by ash then ended up on your channel because of the recommendations under that video

[@arionrhod6383]

First, I love the idea, I want to try it! Second, I think the reason the full pants wrinkle on the seam in the back is that you may have joined a piece that was on grain with a piece on the bias and the bias stretched - I notice that it's buckling more on one side, so that's my impression at least! Nice job all around!

[@katmusswoodwind]

Also that wire idea is BRILLIANT - definitely gonna try that!

[@Ella-LouiseRuffles]

The grey pair are my favourite out of the 3 you made.

[@trinity6diversia]

I love this! I can sew square things, but making clothes scares me. I'm definitely going to try to make some pants though, the pink ones seem flowy enough that if it's not perfect, it'll probably be fine.

[@Elizabeth-Rivera]

I love your video's style. You're amazing and a breath of fresh air when it comes to presenting a real seamstress mess, mistakes, and all. So, thank you. Sasha Starlight has an amazing video for adjustable palazzo pants, they're lovely, maybe you could try that pattern instead of the split. I'm not a fan of the split anything lol.

[@maggierobertson2962]

I made a pair in dark blue linen and they are mr FAVORITE pants. I plan to make several more.
