Week 9...!

Week 9
I made trousers
The fabric was sourced in hackney 
The fabric is cotton
And cost £3pm and i bought 2meters and used jus one meter.
I wanted to add detail at the waist band.
So i ruffled the waist and made them high waist.and pressed the ruffles in place.
As a garment it looked well but i made the waist to small. even i put a waist band in.
so next time i would but a zipper on the side.
i was pleased with the detail on the waist, it gave the trousers character 
I was disappointed they didn't fit and couldn't be worn.
I wanted them to be wide legged instead of fitted. 

Things  that went right and wrong
The fabric didn't fray and pressing it, it stayed in place like the hem. 
But next time i would make them shorter.
 The stitching


 
I made it as neat as i could and there's improvement compared to the first garment.

I like the detail of the waist 
but next time i would insert a zip to have an opening.
