Tilly & The Buttons Sewing Pattern - Jessa Trousers/Shorts

£10.00 £15.50

Create yourself a gorgeous pair of trousers or shorts with the help of popular pattern designer, Tilly & The Buttons.

This classic style pattern is an exciting new addition to Tilly's range of patterns and is ideal for those who are looking to improve their skills after making a few garments. Why are these patterns so great? Not only do you get the pattern, but also full-colour step-by-step instructions, so you don't have to be a great pattern reader to be able to make a modern and stylish pair of trousers or shorts. 

The Jessa trousers and shorts are fun and flattering, with a slightly seventies twist. The high waist, curved waistband and back darts ensure a flattering fit across the bum, and you can choose from optional details like patch pockets or faux flap pockets too. The trousers have a slightly flared finish to the leg, while the shorts feature a classy turned-up hem. Both will teach you how to add a concealed front zip fly to a garment.

A medium-weight woven fabric is ideal for this garment, such as denim, corduroy, cotton drill or linen. If it's got a touch of stretch to it, even better, but this isn't required!

See the back of the pattern image for fabric requirements.
