S1071 Sinclair Patterns Moon wide leg woven pull on pants, culottes and shorts

It's April, as it is everywhere in the world, but, it's meant to be Autumn here in Melbourne, Australia.  It's incredibly warmer than usual.  Our usual weather in Melbourne at the moment should be warm, sunny days and cool nights.  Someone needs to tell mother nature that something is wrong.  We haven't had rain in a while.  Maybe I should wash the car - it usually rains after I do that!

I had the pleasure of testing the S1071 Sinclair Patterns Moon wide leg woven pull on pants, culottes and shorts.  At the time I decided on the shorts the weather here was even warmer than it is now and I couldn't bear the thought of a longer pant.  You know how it is when the weather just is too hot for too long, you need clothes that are easy and comfortable to wear.  These pants meet that category exactly.  With easy to follow instructions these pants come together easily.  Their fit is comfortable and an easy sew.

I have an idea for a hack of this pattern, if only I could find that piece of fabric I want to make it in!

I'd recommend making this pattern, they are a pull on pant in a woven fabric from my stash, a type of suiting fabric.

Some background to taking these photos. On the day we took these photos, my husband and I were walking back from grabbing a coffee.  On the way home we passed a second hand store and saw this beautiful hat box, since it had original stickers on it from the 1950s and was in great condition, we picked it up.  We then passed a section where it was quiet and I thought would make a good back drop for my photos.

I also attended the Australian Quilt Convention at the Exhibition Buildings last weekend and to give you an idea of the weather, here's a photo of my favourite fountain:

Anyhow, I'm in my last week of term break, so I better get back to some sewing.

Happy sewing everyone.
