Sexy Seersucker with New Look 6216

August 17, 2014 by CurvyGirlsareChic


Hi Fam! Its me again!

Ugh since I am still having the vein issue I need to make more and more of my clothes.. Why because I can fit myself better than purchasing garments and altering.

So I made myself some cute drawstring Seersucker Red Pants!

How funny many years ago this was consider “candy stripe” fabric and now its cool to wear!

Forget what you heard I like them! The fabric is literally care free and extremely easy to sew! I made these pants in about two hours. Would be less if I had better practice with my new serger!

I did something a bit funky with the serger thread.. used two different colors because I knew I would cuff them. Plus I made a little longer for more cuff depth.

Pattern is New Look 6216
Pattern Description: 6216
Misses’ Knit Tops and Pants
Misses’ easy knit top with scoop neck and short
all-in-one sleeves or higher neckline with 3/4 dolman sleeves and pull-on pants
with drawstring waist. Great for casual / weekend.

– 18
