I have yet to make the Thurlows (shocking!) but I think they may be next up after I finish my jeans, and I'd like to make them with the slimmer leg like you did here.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692255718087191913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962068830682572078.post-86104346063786645102014-02-10T20:01:56.478+11:002014-02-10T20:01:56.478+11:00Might have to check out the denim at Spotty.

I like these ones. Nice fit! I haven't purchased clothes for myself for over a year now but had so many pairs of jeans and pants in my wardrobe anyway. But as they all start to wear out, I think this year I am going to have to think about making some more pants for myself. I'm intrigued by Jamie jeans too.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692255718087191913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962068830682572078.post-4397363074590322562014-02-10T10:35:20.941+11:002014-02-10T10:35:20.941+11:00Only yesterday I redrafted the Thurlow pattern to ...Only yesterday I redrafted the Thurlow pattern to skinnify them (as per the tutorial on Sewaholic's blog). I'm nervous about how much I've taken them in, but they are super wide to begin with. I bought the polka dot denim which Spotty has at the moment using my 40% off voucher, so if they don't work out it's not a big deal. It was a toss up between skinny thurlow's or Clovers, but given the many fitting issues most people have with Clovers, I'll stick with what I know. I'm interested to see what you come up with, I always enjoy your makes.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692255718087191913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962068830682572078.post-39626066347608781232014-02-09T22:45:10.193+11:002014-02-09T22:45:10.193+11:00I think I may have to look around and start thinki...I think I may have to look around and start thinking about the Jamie jeans.

Last time I popped into Lincraft down south here they had a huge amount of denim in many colours. I think it was a huge load gotten from a clothing manufacturer and there was some good stuff. Send me an email if you'd like more deets.SewJillianhttp://www.sewunravelled.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962068830682572078.post-26732467241995300512014-02-09T20:59:53.083+11:002014-02-09T20:59:53.083+11:00I was JUST about to suggest the named Jamie jeans....I was JUST about to suggest the named Jamie jeans. I just knocked out a pair and they fit me BEAUTIFULLY. If you're willing to pay international shipping for fabric, mood has a bunch of theory denim. They have a black one that I'm planning to get for my next Jamie jeans!Sadafnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962068830682572078.post-20050529551938507762014-02-09T20:48:24.961+11:002014-02-09T20:48:24.961+11:00What about the Named Jamie Jeans?

I think you've nailed the fit with your Thurlows though!Rachelnoreply@blogger.com
