Don’t forget the elastic!

I tried to make my daughter a pair of pants. the above fabric was a skirt that i could wear from the goodwill. I kept the edge that had the zipper in tack so i wouldn’t have to install one. I used another pair of pants that my daughter wears to use as a pattern. At about where I thought her knees would be, i tapered the pattern out so that it would create the bell bottomy look above.

(IMPORTANT NOTE: I forgot that the pants i was using as a pattern had elastic around the waist in the back. So the pattern i made turned out to be way too small for her waist) Too bad because the pants are soooo cute!
