Purple Riding Pants

Today it's time to show off the purple Riding Pants I made using Me Sew Crazy's latest pattern.


These pants take simple leggings and kick them up a notch by adding inner leg patches, a faux fly, and buttons to the leg openings.  I love details like this!



They are also fashionable yet comfortable enough for the active movement of a 4 year old.


These purple riding pants are made using denim jegging material and quilting cotton for the patches.  I'm fairly new to sewing with knit, and as Jessica mentions in her post about the pattern release, "these pants are perfect for the seamstress just getting familiar with knits!!"  I totally agree!  Following the pattern's easy to read large text and highlighted notes, I had no problems sewing these.  The pattern is also full of detailed photos and lots of tips to help you with each step of the assembly.

According to the pattern's sizing chart, Ella wears something between a 4T and a 5T, so I decided to use the 4T and lengthen the pants by an inch and a half.   This worked out perfectly for a great fit on Ella!


So, there you have it--Purple Riding Pants!  My third installment of Pants Week here on sewVery! Come back tomorrow for more pants inspiration!


And if you like both of the tops that Ella is wearing with these pants, be sure to visit next week to read more about them!

Thanks in advance for taking the time to stop by sewVery today and for purchasing this outstanding deal through the link on my site.  I hope you'll come back throughout the week to see a thing or two that I have made using these patterns.  

Today is the 1st day of the 1st ever Sew Fab e-Pattern Bundle Sale and giveaway, sponsored by The Southern Institute and Fat Quarter Shop!





Over the past eight weeks a lot of behind the scenes work has taken place to bring you this amazing bundle of ePatterns from several of the top pattern designers and bloggers in the sewing and blogging world. The result is a bundle of 18 PDF sewing patterns that you don't want to miss.

Buy Now

For one week only, ten pattern designers have come together to bring you 18 of their best PDF patterns, valued together at over $139.00, for the incredible price of $24.95!  That's over 80% off of the combined retail value!

Plus you can enter to win a dream of a giveaway valued at $390 from some really great shops! For less than $25.00 you will have a library of resources that you can use over and over again.  

The designers that have joined this sale are experts in their craft.  They have been sewing for a very long time and are well known in blogland and elsewhere.  Each designer has contributed one or two of their favorite patterns to create a bundle that is sure to please!  Whether you are sewing for your own family or making gifts for others, these are patterns that you will love to use. If you've never sewn with a PDF pattern before, let me tell you how great it is!  After downloading your pattern instructions and your pattern, you will print out the pattern itself, creating pattern tiles, if you will.  Simply tape the tiles together to create the full pattern!  At that point you can cut out the size that you need and pin the paper pattern directly to your fabric or you can trace the pattern size that you need onto sewing paper or tissue paper and cut it out, saving the paper pattern for later when you need to sew another size.  Pdf patterns are so convenient because you can print them out as many times as you need!
