Little Boy's Pants

I promised a blog on pants for little boys after posting some ideas for little girls. I have bought for my grandson corduroy I found at the Textiles Store in Nashville this summer that was 50% off so I am inspired to get him ready for Fall. I have found a wonderful pattern that I have pictured below that has worked well for me. I do not want the pants to be too plain but do want them easy to sew. I think this "Britches and Bloomers" pattern does both...it gives you an option for cargo pockets to dress them up a bit and it has a wonderfully easy method of putting the hem in. If you decide to buy this pattern you will also receive a good pattern for a little girl's pant with a single ruffle...I just think for the time I prefer the Portobello Pixie pattern for girls to this one. Try it and see which you prefer. I am dreading the day when I cannot use this boy's pant pattern because it has been so easy and quick to use. Try the cargo pockets and the back pockets...they really look cute on those fat little legs and bottoms! Another plus....I have made these pants in madras and they turn out just as well as the corduroy.
