Black Denim Pants and Jacket


 I bought this fabric in Ray Stitch, online, last April. This same year, in December, I decided to make some wide jeans and a short jacket.


For the jeans, I used this Burda pattern that I have made twice previously. It's a little too wide in the waist, but that is easy to solve. It is tricky to find the perfect ease for jeans, since the fabric gives, and some more than others. 

The pattern for the jacket is mine, and that makes me proud, I admit. I used Aldrich's book to create it; it's the "Fitted Casual Jacket" in p. 128, but cut at the waist. And it fits like a glove.
