Whee!

I love making pants or vintage/modern skirts. With about five hours of work I've gotten my daughter's culottes done except for hems. They're hanging to let any bias hang out, but they shouldn't drop much since they're only slightly flared. I looked up the original pattern number, and the pattern was originally from 1947. I had thought they might be earlier.

I tried them on, and they're too small for me, which is not a surprise. Going up 2" through the hip and waist would fit me well. I wouldn't mind making a pair for myself.
